Satellites of spherical subgroups

Abstract

Let GG be a complex connected reductive algebraic group. Given a spherical subgroup HGH \subset G and a subset II of the set of spherical roots of G/HG/H, we define, up to conjugation, a spherical subgroup HIGH_I \subset G of the same dimension of HH, called a satellite. We investigate various interpretations of the satellites. We also show a close relation between the Poincar\'{e} polynomials of the two spherical homogeneous spaces G/HG/H and G/HIG/H_I.
