Can a semisimple orbit always be identified with a cotangent bundle?

Let $H$ be a semisimple element of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of a semisimple Lie group $G$, and let $M:=\mathrm{Ad}_G(H)\subset\mathfrak{g}$ be the corresponding adjoint orbit. If we choose a ...

Homogeneous symplectic manifolds

I have often heard/read a statement (see, e.g., this MathOverflow question) equivalent to the following: Let $G$ be a connected Lie group and $(M,\omega)$ a connected and simply-connected symplectic ...

Classification of Compact Symplectic Homogeneous Spaces

Let $M=G/H$ be a compact homogeneous space, $G$ a compact Lie Group and $H$ a closed subgroup. Is there some classification, akin to the Kaehler case, for which such manifolds admit a symplectic ...

Does $G/H$ (quotient of a real semisimple Lie group by a Cartan subgroup) have a natural symplectic structure?

Let $G$ be a real semisimple Lie group (say $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$) and $H$ be its Cartan subgroup (say torus or diagonal subgroup of $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$). My questions is: it is always true that we have ...
