Abstract: We study the variety $mathfrakg(l)$ consisting of matrices $xinmathfrakgl(n,C)$ such that $x$ and its $n-1$ by $n-1$ cutoff $x_{n-1}$ share exactly $l$ eigenvalues, counted with multiplicity. We determine the irreducible components of $mathfrakg(l)$ by using the orbits of $GL(n-1,C)$ on the flag variety $B_n$ of $mathfrakgl(n,C)$. More precisely, let $mathfrakbin{B}_n$ be a Borel subalgebra such that the orbit $GL(n-1,C)cdotmathfrakb$ in $B_n$ has codimension $l$. Then we show that the set $Y_{fb}:=Ad(g)(x):xinmathfrakbcapmathfrakg(l),ginGL(n-1,C)$ is an irreducible component of $mathfrakg(l)$, and every irreducible component of of $mathfrakg(l)$ is of the form $Y_{mathfrakb}$, where $mathfrakb$ lies in a $GL(n-1,C)$-orbit of codimension $l$. An important ingredient in our proof is the flatness of a variant of a morphism considered by Kostant and Wallach, and we prove this flatness assertion using ideas from symplectic geometry.
