Torus Actions on Quotients of Affine Spaces

Algebraic Geometry 2026-05-27 v3 Representation Theory

Abstract

We study the locus of fixed points of a torus action on a GIT quotient of a complex vector space by a reductive complex algebraic group which acts linearly. We show that, under the assumption that GG acts freely on the stable locus, the components of the fixed point locus are again GIT quotients of linear subspaces by Levi subgroups.
