We study a compact invariant convex set E in a polar representation of a compact Lie group. Polar representations are given by the adjoint action of K on p, where K is a maximal compact subgroup of a real semisimple Lie group G with Lie algebra g = k ⊕ p. If a ⊂ p is a maximal abelian subalgebra, then P = E ∩ a is a convex set in a. We prove that up to conjugacy the face structure of E is completely determined by that of P and that a face of E is exposed if and only if the corresponding face of P is exposed. We apply these results to the convex hull of the image of a restricted momentum map.

Abstract
We study a compact invariant convex set E in a polar representation of a compact Lie group. Polar representations are given by the adjoint action of K on p, where K is a maximal compact subgroup of a real semisimple Lie group G with Lie algebra g = k ⊕ p. If a ⊂ p is a maximal abelian subalgebra, then P = E ∩ a is a convex set in a. We prove that up to conjugacy the face structure of E is completely determined by that of P and that a face of E is exposed if and only if the corresponding face of P is exposed. We apply these results to the convex hull of the image of a restricted momentum map.File in questo prodotto:
