Let σ, θ be commuting involutions of the connected reductive algebraic group G where σ, θ and G are defined over a (usually algebraically closed) field k, char k = 2. We have fixed point groups H := G and K := G and an action (H × K ) × G → G, where ((h, k), g) → hgk−1, h ∈ H, k ∈ K, g ∈ G. Let G//(H × K ) denote Spec O(G)H×K (the categorical quotient). Let A be maximal among subtori S of G such that θ(s) = σ(s) = s−1 for all s ∈ S. There is the associated Weyl group W := WH×K (A). We show: • The inclusion A → G induces an isomorphism A/W ∼ → G//(H × K ). In particular, the closed (H × K )-orbits are precisely those which intersect A. • The fibers of G → G//(H × K ) are the same as those occurring in certain associated symmetric varieties. In particular, the fibers consist of finitely many orbits. We investigate: • The structure of W and its relation to other naturally occurring Weyl groups and to the action of σθ on the A-weight spaces of . • The relation of the orbit type stratifications of A/W and G//(H × K ). Along the way we simplify some of Richardson’s proofs for the symmetric case σ = θ, and at the end we quickly recover results of Berger, Flensted-Jensen, Hoogenboom and Matsuki [Ber57, FJ78, Hoo84, Mat97] for the case k = .
