Abstract: Let W be the Weyl group of type BCn. We first provide restriction formulas of the total Springer representations for the symplectic Lie algebra in characteristic 2 and the exotic case to the maximal parabolic subgroup of W which is of type BCn−1. Then we show that these two restriction formulas are equivalent, and discuss how the results can be used to examine the existence of affine pavings of Springer fibers corresponding to the symplectic Lie algebra in characteristic 2.


This article is concerned with the Springer theory of Weyl groups of type \(BC_n\). The two main theorems provide formulas for the restriction of total Springer representations to the maximal parabolic subgroup of type \(BC_{n-1}\), for the Springer theory arising from the nilpotent cone of a symplectic Lie algebra in characteristic \(2\) and for the Springer theory arising from the exotic nilpotent cone of [\textit{S. Kato}, Duke Math. J. 148, No. 2, 305--371 (2009; Zbl 1183.20002)]. The author also explains that the two formulas become equivalent via the comparison of the two aforementioned Springer theories in [\textit{S. Kato}, Am. J. Math. 133, No. 2, 519--553 (2011; Zbl 1242.20056)] and he demonstrates how they can be used to examine the existence of affine pavings of Springer fibers for the symplectic Lie algebra in characteristic \(2\).
