The B-orbits on a Hermitian symmetric variety in characteristic 2

Abstract

Let G be a reductive linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic 2. Fix a parabolic subgroup P such that the corresponding parabolic subgroup over C has abelian unipotent radical and fix a Levi subgroup L⊂eq P. We parametrize the orbits of a Borel B⊂eq P over the Hermitian symmetric variety G/L supposing the root system is irreducible. For simply laced we prove a combinatorial characterization of the Bruhat order over these orbits. We also prove a formula to compute the dimension of the orbits from combinatorial characteristics of their representatives.
