contents We determine the non-reduced components of global nilpotent cones in various cases of interest. In particular, under the appropriate coprimality conditions, we show: (1) the global nilpotent cone for an $L$-twisted $\operatorname{GL}_r$-Hitchin fibration associated to a curve $C$ of genus $g\ge 2$ is nowhere reduced, where $L$ is either the canonical bundle or has degree greater than $2g-2$; (2) the global nilpotent cone for a moduli space of one-dimensional sheaves on a K3, abelian, or del Pezzo surface is nowhere reduced; (3) suppose $\ell$ is a primitive, basepoint-free, big and nef class on a K3 surface, then a general fiber of a Beauville-Mukai system for the class $r\ell$ has primitive homology class if and only if $r=1$. Our methods include group scheme actions on Lagrangian fibrations, a GIT-stratification of global nilpotent cones of Hitchin fibrations, and deformation to the normal cone.
