Abstract

Let G be an algebraic real reductive group and Z a real spherical G-variety, that is, it admits an open orbit for a minimal parabolic subgroup P. We prove a local structure theorem for Z. In the simplest case where Z is homogeneous, the theorem provides an isomorphism of the open P-orbit with a bundle Q x S-L. Here Q is a parabolic subgroup with Levi decomposition L (sic) U, and S is a homogeneous space for a quotient D = L/L-n of L, where L-n subset of L is normal, such that D is compact modulo center.
