Abstract

We prove that for a simply laced group, the closure of the Borel conjugacy class of any nilpotent element of height 2 in its conjugacy class is normal and admits a rational resolution. We extend this, using Frobenius splitting techniques, to the closure in the whole Lie algebra if either the group has type A or the element has rank 2.
