    On the exactness of Kostant-Kirillov form and the second cohomology of nilpotent orbits (English)
    0 references
    In this work the authors give a criterion for the Kostant-Kirillov form on an adjoint orbit in a real semisimple Lie group to be exact. Also they compute the second cohomology of all the nilpotent adjoint orbits in every complex simple Lie algebra.
