Abstract:
Let  and  be adjoint nilpotent orbits in a real semisimple Lie algebra. Write  if  is contained in the closure of  This defines a partial order on the set of such orbits, known as the closure ordering. We determine this order for the two noncompact nonsplit real forms of the simple complex Lie algebra
