Abstract

Let BB be a Noetherian normal local ring, and G\Aut(B)G\subset\Aut(B) a cyclic group of local automorphisms of prime order. Let AA be the ring of GG-invariants of BB, assume that AA is Noetherian. We study the invariant morphism; in particular, we prove that BB is a monogenous AA-algebra if and only if the augmentation ideal of BB is principal. If in particular BB is regular, we prove that AA is regular if the augmentation ideal of BB is principal.
