Stratification of a singular component of a Springer fiber over \(x^2 = 0\) of the simplest type (Q6097863)

Let \(\mathbb{K}\) be an algebraically closed field and \(x \in M_{n}(\mathbb{K})\) be a nilpotent endomorphism of \(V=\mathbb{K}^{n}\). Let \(\mathcal{F}\) be the variety of full flags over \(V\). The variety \(\mathcal{F}_{x}\) constituted by all the elements \((V_{0}, V_{1}, \ldots, V_{n}) \in \mathcal{F}\) such that \(x(V_{i}) \subset V_{i-1}\) is called a Springer fiber. The components of \(\mathcal{F}_{x}\) are labeled by standard Young tableaux with two columns. If \(T\) is a Young tableau with two columns, one can define a numerical invariant \(\rho(T)\) such that the component \(\mathcal{F}_{T}\) is singular if and only if \(\rho(T) \geq 2\). In the paper under review authors construct a stratification of \(\mathcal{F}_{T}\) for \(T\) with \(\rho(T)=2\), which reflects also the inner structure of the singular locus, and show that such components have equivalent stratifications if and only if they are isomorphic as algebraic varieties. In addition they provide a combinatorial procedure which partitions the set of such components into the classes of isomorphic components.
