Some results on retracts of polynomial rings

Commutative Algebra 2020-09-15 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we first consider the relationship between a polynomial ring BB over a Noetherian domain RR and the ring of invariants AA of a Ga{\mathbb G}_a-action on BB, when AA occurs as a retract of BB. Next, we study retracts of a polynomial ring in general and address the questions of D. L. Costa raised in \cite{C}. Finally, we examine the behaviour of ideals and certain properties of rings under retractions.
