Some Landau-Ginzburg models viewed as rational maps (Q2397599)

The authors, among the other things, study the geometric structure of the adjoint orbit \(\mathcal{O}(H_{0})\) from both algebraic geometric and Lie theory point of view where \(G\) is a Lie group with Lie algebra \(\mathfrak{g}\), \(\mathfrak{h}\subset \mathfrak{g}\) Cartan subalgebra and \(H_{0}\in \mathfrak{h}\). The orbit \(\mathcal{O}(H_{0})\) is not compact. The authors prove that two compactifications one via algebraic geometric methods and, other via Lie theory coincide for \(\mathfrak{sl}(n+1)\). More explicitly, the authors prove that the embedding \(\mathcal{O}(H_{0})\hookrightarrow \mathbb{P}^{n}\times \mathbb{P}^{n *}\) obtained by Lie theoretical methods agrees with the Segre embedding obtained by homogenization of the ideal cutting out the orbit \(\mathcal{O}(H_{0})\) as an affine variety in \(\mathfrak{sl}(n+1)\).
