Regular functions on spherical nilpotent orbits in complex symmetric pairs: classical Hermitian cases

Representation Theory 2020-10-21 v2 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

Given a classical semisimple complex algebraic group G and a symmetric pair (G,K) of Hermitian type, we study the closures of the spherical nilpotent K-orbits in the isotropy representation of K. We show that all such orbit closures are normal and describe the K-module structure of their ring of regular functions.
