Taut representations of compact simple Lie groups

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this paper we classify the reducible representations of compact simple Lie groups all of whose orbits are tautly embedded in Euclidean space with respect to Z_2 coefficients.


A representation of a compact Lie group is called \textit{taut} if all of its orbits are taut submanifolds of the representation space. The main result of the paper is the classification oft he reducible represenations of compact simple Lie groups, all of whose orbits are tautly embedded in Euclidean space, with respect to \(\mathbb Z_2\)-coefficients. This classification theorem extends the classification in the irreducible case, completed by the author and \textit{G. Thorbergsson} [J. Reine Angew. Math. 555, 187--235 (2003Zbl 1024.53039)].
