Moment maps and geometric invariant theory
Moment maps and geometric invariant theory—Corrected version (October 2011)
Linearization of Poisson actions and singular values of matrix products
We prove that the linearization functor from the category of Hamiltonian -actions with group-valued moment maps in the sense of Lu, to the category of ordinary Hamiltonian - actions, preserves products up to symplectic isomorphism. As an application, we give a new proof of the Thompson conjecture on singular values of matrix products and extend this result to the case of real matrices. We give a formula for the Liouville volume of these spaces and obtain from it a hyperbolic version of the Duflo...
