An extension of Rais' theorem and seaweed subalgebras of simple Lie algebras

Dmitri I. Panyushev (2005)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We prove an extension of Rais' theorem on the coadjoint representation of certain graded Lie algebras. As an application, we prove that, for the coadjoint representation of any seaweed subalgebra in a general linear or symplectic Lie algebra, there is a generic stabiliser and the field of invariants is rational. It is also shown that if the highest root of a simple Lie algerba is not fundamental, then there is a parabolic subalgebra whose coadjoint representation do not...

Chern classes of reductive groups and an adjunction formula

Valentina Kiritchenko (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this paper, I construct noncompact analogs of the Chern classes for equivariant vector bundles over complex reductive groups. For the tangent bundle, these Chern classes yield an adjunction formula for the (topological) Euler characteristic of complete intersections in reductive groups. In the case where a complete intersection is a curve, this formula gives an explicit answer for the Euler characteristic and the genus of the curve. I also prove that the higher Chern classes vanish. The first...

Classes d'Euler équivariantes et points rationnellement lisses

Alberto Arabia (1998)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Lorsqu’un tore T agit sur une variété algébrique complexe X munie de la topologie transcendante, nous définissons la classe d’Euler T -équivariante d’un point fixe isolé x X T , qu’il soit lisse ou non. Cette classe est une fraction rationnelle à un nombre fini de variables et lorsque x est rationnellement lisse dans X , c’est un polynôme qui s’identifie canoniquement à la classe d’Euler équivariante usuelle, mais, réciproquement, lorsque la classe d’Euler équivariante est polynomiale, il n’est pas toujours...
