    From the abstract: It is proved that all Morse height functions on regular orbits of the adjoint action of compact semisimple Lie groups are perfect. In the case of an arbitrary linear representation of a compact Lie group it is proved that all height functions satisfy the Bott property on the orbits of the representation. The case of the group \(\mathrm{SO}_4\) is considered in more details.
