Algebraic zip data

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: An algebraic zip datum is a tuple CZ:=(G,P,Q,phi) consisting of a reductive group G together with parabolic subgroups P and Q and an isogeny phicolonP/RuPoQ/RuQ. We study the action of the group E:=(p,q)inPimesQ|phi(piP(p))=piQ(q) on G given by ((p,q),g)mapstopgq1. We define certain smooth E-invariant subvarieties of G, show that they define a stratification of G. We determine their dimensions and their closures and give a description of the stabilizers of the E-action on G. We also generalize all results to non-connected groups. We show that for special choices of CZ the algebraic quotient stack is isomorphic to or to , where Z is a G-variety studied by Lusztig and He in the theory of character sheaves on spherical compactifications of G and where Z has been defined by Moonen and the second author in their classification of F-zips. In these cases the E-invariant subvarieties correspond to the so-called "G-stable pieces" of Z defined by Lusztig (resp. the G-orbits of Z).
