Matsuki correspondence for the affine Grassmannian

Abstract: We present a version of the Matsuki correspondence for the affine Grassmannian

G r = G (C ((t))) / G (C [[t]])

of a connected reductive complex algebraic group

G

. The main statement is an anti-isomorphism between the orbit posets of two subgroups of

G (C ((t)))

acting on

G r

. The first is the polynomial loop group

L G_{R}

of a real form

G_{R}

of

G

; the second is the loop group

K (C ((t)))

of the complexification

K

of a maximal compact subgroup

K_{c}

of

G_{R}

. The orbit poset itself turns out to be simple to describe.
