contents Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0, let G=GL_n be the general linear group over k, let P be a parabolic subgroup of G, and let u_P be the Lie algebra of its unipotent radical. We show that the Kumar-Lauritzen-Thomsen splitting of the cotangent bundle Gx^Pu_P of G/P has top degree (p-1)\dim(G/P). The component of that degree is therefore given by the (p-1)-th power of a function f. We give a formula for f and deduce that it vanishes on the exceptional locus of the resolution Gx^Pu_P-->\ov{\mc O} where \ov{\mc O} is the closure of the Richardson orbit of P. As a consequence we obtain that the higher cohomology groups of a line bundle on Gx^Pu_P associated to a dominant weight are zero. The splitting of Gx^Pu_P given by f^{p-1} can be seen as a generalisation of the Mehta-Van der Kallen splitting of Gx^Bu.

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0, let G=GL_n be the general linear group over k, let P be a parabolic subgroup of G, and let u_P be the Lie algebra of its unipotent radical. We show that the Kumar-Lauritzen-Thomsen splitting of the cotangent bundle Gx^Pu_P of G/P has top degree (p-1)\dim(G/P). The component of that degree is therefore given by the (p-1)-th power of a function f. We give a formula for f and deduce that it vanishes on the exceptional locus of the resolution Gx^Pu_P-->\ov{\mc O} where \ov{\mc O} is the closure of the Richardson orbit of P. As a consequence we obtain that the higher cohomology groups of a line bundle on Gx^Pu_P associated to a dominant weight are zero. The splitting of Gx^Pu_P given by f^{p-1} can be seen as a generalisation of the Mehta-Van der Kallen splitting of Gx^Bu.
