Birational Induction of Nilpotent Orbit Covers in Exceptional Types

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Let G be a semisimple simply connected algebraic group over C of exceptional type. For each G-equivariant nilpotent cover of a nilpotent coadjoint G-orbit O, we determine the unique birationally rigid induction datum from which it is birationally induced.
