The Regular property of Invariant Rings over Regular Domains

Commutative Algebra 2026-03-20 v3

Abstract

The main result of this paper is a generalization of the theorem of Chevalley-Shephard-Todd to the rings of invariants of pseudo-reflection groups over regular domains. More precisely, let AA be a regular domain and let KK be its field of fractions. Let GGLn(A)G\subseteq GL_n(A) be a finite group. Let GG act linearly on A[X1,X2,,Xn]A[X_1,X_2,\dots, X_n] (fixing AA). Assume that G|G| is invertible in AA. We prove that GGLn(K)G\subseteq GL_n(K) is generated by pseudo-reflections if and only if (A[X1,X2,,Xn])G(A[X_1,X_2,\dots, X_n])^G is regular.
