Matsuki's Double Coset Decomposition via Gradient Maps
Journal of Lie Theory, Volume 18 (2008) no. 3, pp. 555-580
Let G be a real-reductive Lie group and let G1 and G2 be two subgroups given by involutions. We show how the technique of gradient maps can be used in order to obtain a new proof of Matsuki's parametrization of the closed double cosets G1 \ G / G2 by Cartan subsets. We also describe the elements sitting in non-closed double cosets.
