The partial compactification of the universal centralizer

Abstract: Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group of adjoint type. The universal centralizer is the family of centralizers in $G$ of regular elements in $\text{Lie}(G)$, parametrized by their conjugacy classes. It has a natural symplectic structure, obtained by Hamiltonian reduction from the cotangent bundle $T^*G$. We consider a partial compactification of the universal centralizer, where each centralizer fiber is replaced by its closure inside the wonderful compactification of $G$. We show that the symplectic structure extends to a log-symplectic Poisson structure on the partial compactification, through a Hamiltonian reduction of the logarithmic cotangent bundle of the wonderful compactification.
