Abstract: [GGSM2] showed that height functions give adjoint orbits of semisimple Lie algebras the structure of symplectic Lefschetz fibrations (superpotential of the LG model in the language of mirror symmetry). We describe how to extend the superpotential to compactifications. Our results explore the geometry of the adjoint orbit from 2 points of view: algebraic geometry and Lie theory.


The authors, among the other things, study the geometric structure of the adjoint orbit \(\mathcal{O}(H_{0})\) from both algebraic geometric and Lie theory point of view where \(G\) is a Lie group with Lie algebra \(\mathfrak{g}\), \(\mathfrak{h}\subset \mathfrak{g}\) Cartan subalgebra and \(H_{0}\in \mathfrak{h}\). The orbit \(\mathcal{O}(H_{0})\) is not compact. The authors prove that two compactifications one via algebraic geometric methods and, other via Lie theory coincide for \(\mathfrak{sl}(n+1)\). More explicitly, the authors prove that the embedding \(\mathcal{O}(H_{0})\hookrightarrow \mathbb{P}^{n}\times \mathbb{P}^{n *}\) obtained by Lie theoretical methods agrees with the Segre embedding obtained by homogenization of the ideal cutting out the orbit \(\mathcal{O}(H_{0})\) as an affine variety in \(\mathfrak{sl}(n+1)\).
