Gelfand-Tsetlin variety for $\mathfrak{gl}_n$

Abstract

S. Ovsienko proved that the Gelfand-Tsetlin variety for $\mathfrak{gl}_n$ is equidimensional (i.e. all its irreducible components have the same dimension) with dimension equals $\frac{n(n-1)}{2}$. This result has important consequences in Representation Theory of Algebras, implying, in particular, the equidimensionality of the nilfiber of the Kostant-Wallach map. In this paper we will present the generalization of this result and will address a weak version of Ovsienko's Theorem which includes the regular case.
