Review text

A generating set for the Grothendieck groups (indexed by partitions) of equivariant modules supported in conjugacy classes of nilpotent matrices is described. More precisely, for each partition, \(p\), the generators are elements that are the Euler characteristic of the push down of certain vector bundles whose index involves compositions that determine the same partition as \(p\). The minimal degeneration of nilpotent orbits is also studied, and some conjectures are stated, one of which describes a smaller set of generators.
