Abstract: For a semisimple Lie algebra g the orbit method attempts to assign representations of g to (coadjoint) orbits in g*. Orbital varieties are particular Lagrangian subvarieties of such orbits leading to highest weight representations of g. In sl(n) orbital varieties are described by Young tableaux. Inclusion relation on orbital variety closures defines a partial order on Young tableaux. Our aim is to describe this order. The paper is devoted to the combinatorial description of induced Duflo order on Young tableaux (the order generated by inclusion of generating subspaces of orbital varieties). This is a very interesting and complex combinatorial question. This is the first paper in the series. In Part II and Part III we use repeatedly the results of the paper as a basis for further study of orbital variety closures.

Review text

Let \(G\) be a connected semisimple finite dimensional complex algebraic group. Consider a triangular decomposition \({\mathfrak g}={\mathfrak n}\oplus{\mathfrak h}\oplus{\mathfrak n}^-\) of its Lie algebra. Let \({\mathcal O}=Gx\), \(x\in\mathfrak n\), be a nilpotent \(G\)-orbit under the adjoint action of \(G\). The irreducible components of the intersection \({\mathcal O}\cap \mathfrak n\) are called orbital varieties associated with \(\mathcal O\). They play a key role in the study of primitive ideals of \(U({\mathfrak g})\) and in the Springer representations of the Weyl group. Orbital varieties are examples of algebraic varieties which are Lagrangian subvarieties of the orbits, leading to highest weight representations of \(\mathfrak g\). The vast majority of them are not complete intersections. They remain rather mysterious objects. The paper under review is the first of a series of three papers devoted to the orbital varieties in the case of \(\mathfrak{sl}_n\). The nilpotent orbits in \(\mathfrak{sl}_n\) are determined by the size of its Jordan blocks, in terms of partitions of \(n\), and the orbital varieties are described with Young tableaux. The relation of inclusion on the closures of orbital varieties defines a partial order on Young tableaux. The purpose of the paper is to describe this order. It gives the combinatorial description of the induced Duflo order on Young tableaux, in terms of the Robinson-Schensted procedure.
