Abstract: Let $mathfrakg$ be a complex simple Lie algebra. We classify the parabolic subalgebras $mathfrakp$ of $mathfrakg$ such that the nilradical of $mathfrakp$ has a commutative polarisation. The answer is given in terms of the Kostant cascade. It requires also the notion of an optimal nilradical and some properties of abelian ideals in a Borel subalgebra of $mathfrakg$. Some invariant-theoretic consequences of the existence of a commutative polarisation are also discussed.

Review text

Given a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra \(\mathfrak g\), the author classifies the parabolic subalgebras \(\mathfrak p\) of \(\mathfrak g\) such that the nilradical of \(\mathfrak p\) has a commutative polarisation. The answer is given in terms of the \textit{Kostant cascade}, and requires the notion of an optimal nilradical and some properties of abelian ideals in a Borel subalgebra of \(\mathfrak g\).
