Component group of stabilizer group of a nilpotent element
Let $G$ be a semisimple complex algebraic group, and $\mathfrak{g}$ be its Lie algebra. $G$ acts on $\mathfrak{g}$ by adjoint action. Let $x$ be an nilpotent element in $\mathfrak{g}$, and $G(x)\...

Are parabolic Springer fibers equal dimensional?
Let $G$ be a simple algrbraic group ( of type BCDEFG ) over the complex number $\mathbb{C}$, let $P$ be a parabolic subgroup of $G$, suppose we have a resolution of singularities $\mu: T^*(G/P)\to \...
