Let $k$ be a field. It might as well be algebraically closed, but I do not want to assume that it has characteristic $0$. I will write "group" for "affine group scheme over $k$", ...

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field, $G$ a (smooth, connected) reductive algebraic group over $k$, $H$ a (smooth, connected) reductive group of semisimple rank 1, and $T$ a maximal torus in $H$. ...

Everything to follow is over some fixed algebraically closed field $k$. Although all the definitions make sense regardless of characteristic, the meat of the question is about small positive ...

The title is meant to be punchy, but also a tongue-in-cheek acknowledgement of the prevalence of ‘reduce’-derived words in this area. (Unfortunately, I overlooked the fact that the question in the ...
