Streszczenie
We determine when an antiinvolution on an adjoint semisimple linear algebraic group extends to an antiinvolution on a $J$-irreducible monoid. Using this information, we study a special class of compactifications of symmetric varieties. Extending the work of Springer on involutions, we describe the parametrizing sets of Borel orbits in these special embeddings.
