Jan 17, 2021 at 21:32 comment added user114666 It is the subgroup made of pair of matrices $(\left(\begin{array}{cc} A & B \\ 0 & C \end{array} \right), \left(\begin{array}{cc} A' & B' \\ 0 & C' \end{array} \right))$ such that $AA'^{T} = \lambda I_k$.
Jan 17, 2021 at 20:31 comment added Mikhail Borovoi Write $G={\rm SL}(n)\times{\rm SL}(n)$, and let $H$ denote the stabilizer of $J_k$. Then ${\rm Pic }\,X_k$ is canonically isomorphic to the character group of $H$. What is $H$ in your case?
Jan 17, 2021 at 20:12 comment added user114666 Thank you. Following the argument you used here mathoverflow.net/questions/379171/… it seems that $\text{Pic}(X_n)\cong \mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ while $\text{Pic}(X_k)\cong \mathbb{Z}\oplus\mathbb{Z}$ for $k< n$. The parity of $k$ does not seem to play any role here. Is this correct?
