چکیده

Let X be an F -rational nilpotent element in the Lie algebra of a connected and reductive group G defined over the ground field F . Suppose that the Lie algebra has a non-degenerate invariant bilinear form. We show that the unipotent radical of the centralizer of X is F -split. This property has several consequences. When F is complete with respect to a discrete valuation with either finite or algebraically closed residue field, we deduce a uniform proof that G(F ) has finitely many nilpotent orbits in g(F ). When the residue field is finite, we obtain a proof that nilpotent orbital integrals converge. Under some further (fairly mild) assumptions on G, we prove convergence for arbitrary orbital integrals on the Lie algebra and on the group. The convergence of orbital integrals in the case where F has characteristic 0 was obtained by Deligne and Ranga Rao (1972).

Nilpotent Orbits in Classical Lie Algebras over Finite Fields of Characteristic 2 and the Springer Correspondence

Let G be an adjoint algebraic group of type B, C, or D over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We construct a Springer correspondence for the Lie algebra of G. In particular, for orthogonal Lie algebras in characteristic 2, the structure of component groups of nilpotent centralizers is determined and the number of nilpotent orbits over finite fields is obtained.

Rationality Properties of Nilpotent Orbits in Good Characteristic

Let X be an F -rational nilpotent element in the Lie algebra of a connected and reductive group G defined over the ground field F . One may associate toX certain cocharacters of Gwith favorable properties; this is an essential feature of the classification of geometric nilpotent orbits due to Bala-Carter, Pommerening, and, more recently, Premet. Suppose that the Lie algebra has a non-degenerate...

Nilpotent Orbits in Positive Characteristic

Let G be a connected reductive linear algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. Assume that p is good for G. In this note we classify all the spherical nilpotent G-orbits in the Lie algebra of G. The classification is the same as in the characteristic zero case obtained by D.I. Panyushev in 1994, [32]: for e a nilpotent element in the Lie algebra of G, the ...

ON NILPOTENT ORBITS OF SLn AND Sp2n OVER A LOCAL NON-ARCHIMEDEAN FIELD

We relate the partition-type parametrization of rational (arithmetic) nilpotent adjoint orbits of the classical groups SLn and Sp2n over local non-Archimedean fields with a parametrization, introduced by DeBacker in 2002, which uses the associated Bruhat-Tits building to relate the question to one over the residue field.
