Abstract

Consider the diagonal action of SLn(K)SL_n(K) on the affine space X=Vm(V)qX=V^{\oplus m}\oplus (V^*)^{\oplus q} where V=Kn,KV=K^n, K an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic and m,q>nm,q>n. We construct a "standard monomial" basis for the ring of invariants K[X]SLn(K)K[X]^{SL_n(K)}. As a consequence, we deduce that K[X]SLn(K)K[X]^{SL_n(K)} is Cohen-Macaulay. We also present the first and second fundamental theorems for SLn(K)SL_n(K)-actions.
