Review text

Brieskorn's (meanwhile classical) construction of the rational double points ADE from the subregular points in the nilpotent cone \({\mathcal N}\) of a Lie-algebra \({\mathfrak g}\), associated to a complex simple algebraic group, is reconsidered with a different proof. This is done using normality of \({\mathcal N}\) in subregular points [cf. \textit{P. Slodowy}, ``Simple singularities and simple algebraic groups, Lect. Notes Math. 815 (1980; Zbl 0441.14002)] and a resolution due to T. Springer. Especially, in the description of the desingularization, the intersection matrix is calculated in a purely cohomological way. For a different approach, cf. also \textit{F. Knop} [Invent. Math. 90, 579- 604 (1987; Zbl 0648.14002)].
