Symmetrizer group of a projective hypersurface

Algebraic Geometry 2025-01-16 v1

Abstract

To each projective hypersurface which is not a cone, we associate an abelian linear algebraic group called the symmetrizer group of the corresponding symmetric form. This group describes the set of homogeneous polynomials with the same Jacobian ideal and gives a conceptual explanation of results by Ueda--Yoshinaga and Wang. In particular, the diagonalizable part of the symmetrizer group detects Sebastiani-Thom property of the hypersurface and its unipotent part is related to the singularity of the hypersurface.
