Strange-orbit conjecture for distinguished partitions in
For every , let be the unique nilpotent orbit with
where is a Borel subalgebra and is its partition. Strange-orbit conjecture. The orbit is strange, and a complementary subalgebra is a Frobenius parabolic subalgebra of minimal dimension.
The source gives the partitions explicitly for even and odd and notes that these orbits are not spherical because . The conjecture therefore concerns a family of non-spherical strange nilpotent orbits and their complementary subalgebras.
