We study wildness of automorphisms of a polynomial ring in three variables in detail using the Shestakov-Umirbaev theory and its generalization.

In 2003, Shestakov-Umirbaev solved Nagata's conjecture on an automorphism of a polynomial ring. In the present paper, we reconstruct their theory by using the "generalized Shestakov-Umirbaev inequality", which was recently given by the…

In 2004 Shestakov and Umirbaev proved that the Nagata automorphism of the polynomial algebra in three variables is wild. We fix a Z-grading on this algebra and consider graded-wild automorphisms, i.e. such automorphisms that can not be…

We give a simpler proof as well as a generalization of the main result of an article of Shestakov and Umirbaev. This latter article being the first of two that solve a long-standing conjecture about the non-tameness, or "wildness", of…

The notion of the weighted degree of a polynomial is a basic tool in Affine Algebraic Geometry. In this paper, we study the properties of the weighted multidegrees of polynomial automorphisms by a new approach which focuses on stable…

Recently, Shestakov-Umirbaev solved Nagata's conjecture on an automorphism of a polynomial ring. To solve the conjecture, they defined notions called reductions of types I--IV for automorphisms of a polynomial ring. An automorphism…

We prove the existence of wild automorphisms on an affine quadric threefold. The method we use is an adaptation of the one used by Shestakov and Umirbaev to prove the existence of wild automorphisms on the affine three dimensional space.

Conjectural results for cohomological invariants of wild character varieties are obtained by counting curves in degenerate Calabi-Yau threefolds. A conjectural formula for E-polynomials is derived from the Gromov-Witten theory of local…

Let us consider a polynomial algebra in three variables equipped with an integer grading. We construct a system of group-generating automorphisms that preserve a given grading.

We define a family of polynomial ring homomorphisms generalizing the well-known Nagata automorphism. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions under which these homomorphisms are automorphisms, and verify that they satisfy the…

Recently, Edo-Poloni constructed a family of tame automorphisms of a polynomial ring in three variables which degenerates to a wild automorphism. In this note, we generalize the example by a different method.

A polynomial automorphism of $\mathbb{A}^n$ over a field of characteristic zero is called co-tame if, together with the affine subgroup, it generates the entire tame subgroup. We prove some new classes of automorphisms, including…

Let $3\leq d_1\leq d_2\leq d_3$ be integers. We show the following results: (1) If $d_2$ is a prime number and $\frac{d_1}{\gcd(d_1,d_3)}\neq2$, then $(d_1,d_2,d_3)$ is a multidegree of a tame automorphism if and only if $d_1=d_2$ or…

In this paper we prove that over algebraically closed field $K$ of positive characteristic $\neq 2$ every automorphism of the group of origin-preserving automorphisms of the polynomial algebra $K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ ($n>3$) which fixes every…

We prove that for every pair of positive integers a, b there exists a number c_0 such that for every c>=c_0 one can find a tame polynomial automorphism of C^3 with multidegree equal to (a,b,c).

We study the structure of length three polynomial automorphisms of $R[X,Y]$ when $R$ is a UFD. These results are used to prove that if $\text{SL}_m(R[X_1,X_2,..., X_n]) = \text{E}_m(R[X_1,X_2,..., X_n])$ for all $n,\ge 0$ and for all $m \ge…

Recently Umirbaev has proved the long-standing Anick conjecture, that is, there exist wild automorphisms of the free associative algebra K<x,y,z> over a field K of characteristic 0. In particular, the well-known Anick automorphism is wild.…

Vinogradov's three primes theorem indicates that, for every sufficiently large odd integer $N$, the equation $N=p_1+p_2+p_3$ is solvable in prime variables $p_1,p_2,p_3$. In this paper, it is proved that Vinogradov's three primes theorem…

Let $(a,a+d,a+2d)$ be an arithmetic progression of positive integers. The following statements are proved: (1) If $a\mid 2d$, then $(a, a+d, a+2d)\in\mdeg(\Tame(\mathbb{C}^3))$. (2) If $a\nmid 2d$, then, except for arithmetic progressions…

We prove that the closure (for the Zariski topology) of the set of polynomial automorphisms of the complex affine plane whose polydegree is (cd-1,b,a) contains all triangular automorphisms of degree cd+a, where a,b >1 and c>0 are integers…
