Compact orbits of Parabolic subgroups (2105.05765v1)

Abstract: We study the action of a real reductive group $G$ on a real submanifold $X$ of a Kahler manifold $Z$. We suppose that the action of a compact connected Lie group $U$ with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{u}$ extends holomorphically to an action of the complexified group $U^{\mathbb C}$ and that the $U$-action on $Z$ is Hamiltonian. If $G\subset U^{\mathbb C}$ is compatible there exists a gradient map $\mu_{\mathfrak p}:X \longrightarrow \mathfrak p$ where $\mathfrak g=\mathfrak k \oplus \mathfrak p$ is a Cartan decomposition of $\mathfrak g$. In this paper we describe compact orbits of parabolic subgroups of $G$ in term of the gradient map $\mu_\mathfrak p$.
