Title: Springer Fibres, Parabolic Induction & Stacking Maps in Classical Type
Abstract: Fibres coming from the Springer resolution on the nilpotent cone are incredibly rich algebraic varieties that have many applications in algebraic geometry, representation theory and combinatorics. In this talk, I will describe how we can use the combinatorics of (domino)tableaux to describe their geometry in low dimensions, in particular, giving a description of their irreducible components. I will also describe a process of parabolic induction on Springer fibres coming the nilpotent cone of a Levi subalgebra. This is joint work with Lewis Topley, and separately with Mee Seong Im and Arik Wilbert.
