Nov 28, 2012 at 17:45 comment added prochet Dear xuhan. For groups, It doesn't work, but actually I need a version of this problem for Lie algebras and your argument works for two points. So, when I look for n points, can we find suitable Borel so that it works?
Nov 24, 2012 at 22:29 comment added user29283 Dear prochet: You're right, I was mistaken -- the product of opposite Borels is an open cell and so doesn't work. Probably it never works. And the fact that one is using a constant point is a sign that this may not be a fruitful thing to consider. (You never explained the motivation for your question, which might be helpful for suggesting deeper tools to use, like strong approximation, etc.)
Nov 24, 2012 at 12:38 comment added prochet In fact, I'm not sure to understand why, in the case where $B_{x}$ and $B_{y}$ are oppposite, $g(x)\in B_{x}B_{y}$?

Nov 24, 2012 at 3:40 comment added prochet Correction to the precedent comment in (i) And for n points is it still true? Say, is there a choice of Iwahoris $I_{x_{1}}$,..., $I_{x_{n}}$ such that : $\forall$ $(h_{2},....,h_{n})\in G(X−x_{2})\times...\times G(X−x_{n})$ there exists $(l_{2},...,l_{n})$ such that: $\\$ (i) $\forall i, l_{i}\in G(X-\{x_{1},...,x_{n}\}\cap I_{x_{i}}$ $\\$ (ii)$ l_{2}h_{2}=....=l_{n}h_{n}$ $\\$ (iii) $l_{i}h_{i}\in I_{x_{1}}$ ?
Nov 24, 2012 at 3:32 comment added prochet Thanks. And for n points is it still true? Say, is there a choice of Iwahoris $I_{x_{1}}$,..., $I_{x_{n}}$ such that : $\forall (h_{2},....,h_{n})\in G(X-x_{2})\times...\times G(X-x_{n})$ there exists $(l_{2},...,l_{n})$ such that: (i) $\forall i$, $l_{i}\in G(X-x)\cap I_{x_{i}}$ (ii) l_{2}h_{2}=....=l_{n}h_{n} (iii)l_{i}h_{i}\in I_{x_{1}} ?
Nov 24, 2012 at 3:05 comment added user29283 It depends on how you're choosing the Iwahori subgroups $I_x$ and $I_y$. (You say "the" Iwahori, but that's as bad as "the" Borel.) Since $g$ is regular at $x \in X - y$, all elements of $G(k(X))$ lying in $I_xg^{-1}$ (viewed inside $G({\rm{Frac}}(O^{\wedge}_x))$) are regular at $x$. Hence, the hypothetical $k$ is regular at $x$, so it is everywhere regular and hence constant (over the ground field denoted as $k$...). So $k$ lies in whatever Borel $B_y$ of $G$ "corresponds" to $I_y$ and you're asking if $g(x) \in B_y B_x$. If $B_y$ and $B_x$ are opposite Borels, you win; if equal, you lose...
