Abstract

In [1], Lusztig gives an explicit formula for the bijection between the set of bipartitions and the set of unipotent classes in a spin group which carry irreducible local systems equivariant for the spin group but not equivariant for the special orthogonal group. The set has a natural partial order and therefore induces a partial order on bipartitions. We use the explicit formula given in [1] to prove that this partial order on bipartitions is the same as the dominance order appeared in Dipper–James–Murphy's work [2].
