Let \(H\subset\text{GL}(V)\) be a connected complex reductive group where \(V\) is a finite-dimensional complex vector space. Let \(v\in V\) and let \(G=\{ g\in\text{GL}(V)\mid gHv=Hv\}\). Following \textit{M. Raïs} [``Notes sur la notion d'invariant caractéristique'', \url{arxiv:0707.0782}], the author says that the orbit \(Hv\) is characteristic for \(H\) if the identity component of \(G\) is \(H\). If \(H\) is semisimple, he says that \(Hv\) is semi-characteristic for \(H\) if the identity component of \(G\) is an extension of \(H\) by a torus. He classifies the \(H\)-orbits which are not (semi)-characteristic in many cases.
