The geometry of generalized Steinberg varieties
The geometry of generalized Steinberg varieties
For a reductive, algebraic group, G, the Steinberg variety of G is the set of all triples consisting of a unipotent element, u, in G and two Borel subgroups of G that contain u. We define generalized Steinberg varieties that depend on four parameters and analyze in detail two special cases that turn out to be related to distinguished double coset representatives in the Weyl group. Using one of the two special cases, we define a parabolic version of a map from the Weyl group to a set of nilpotent orbits of G in Lie(G) defined by Joseph and study some of its properties.

Abstract
For a reductive, algebraic group, G, the Steinberg variety of G is the set of all triples consisting of a unipotent element, u, in G and two Borel subgroups of G that contain u. We define generalized Steinberg varieties that depend on four parameters and analyze in detail two special cases that turn out to be related to distinguished double coset representatives in the Weyl group. Using one of the two special cases, we define a parabolic version of a map from the Weyl group to a set of nilpotent orbits of G in Lie(G) defined by Joseph and study some of its properties.
