Approximation of nilpotent orbits for simple Lie groups

Approximation of nilpotent orbits for simple Lie groups

We propose a systematic and topological study of limits $\lim_{\nu\to 0^+}G_\mathbb{R}\cdot(\nu x)$ of continuous families of adjoint orbits for non-compact simple Lie groups. This limit is always a finite union of nilpotent orbits. We describe explicitly these nilpotent orbits in terms of Richardson orbits in the case of hyperbolic semisimple …
