Résumé
Abstract

Soit $θ$ une involution de l’algèbre de Lie semi-simple de dimension finie $𝔤$ et $𝔤 = 𝔨 \oplus 𝔭$ la décomposition de Cartan associée. La variété commutante nilpotente de l’algèbre de Lie symétrique $(𝔤, θ)$ est formée des paires d’éléments nilpotents $(x, y)$ de $𝔭$ tels que $[x, y] = 0$ . Il est conjecturé que cette variété est équidimensionnelle et que ses composantes irréductibles sont indexées par les orbites d’éléments $𝔭$ -distingués. Cette conjecture a été démontrée par A. Premet dans le cas $(𝔤 \times 𝔤, θ)$ avec $θ (x, y) = (y, x)$ . Dans ce travail, nous la prouvons dans un grand nombre d’autres cas.

Let $θ$ be an involution of the finite dimensional semisimple Lie algebra $𝔤$ and $𝔤 = 𝔨 \oplus 𝔭$ be the associated Cartan decomposition. The nilpotent commuting variety of $(𝔤, θ)$ consists in pairs of nilpotent elements $(x, y)$ of $𝔭$ such that $[x, y] = 0$ . It is conjectured that this variety is equidimensional and that its irreducible components are indexed by the orbits of $𝔭$ distinguished elements. This conjecture was established by A. Premet in the case $(𝔤 \times 𝔤, θ)$ where $θ (x, y) = (y, x)$ . In this work we prove the conjecture in a significant number of other cases.
