Let G be a connected simply-connected reductive algebraic group. In this article, we consider the normal algebraic varieties equipped with a horospherical G-action such that the quotient of a G-stable open subset is a curve. Let X be such a…
We introduce the notion of relation type of an affine algebra and prove that it is well defined by using the Jacobi-Zariski exact sequence of Andr\'e-Quillen homology. In particular, the relation type is an invariant of an affine algebraic…
Let G be an affine algebraic group acting on an affine variety X. We present an algorithm for computing generators of the invariant ring K[X]^G in the case where G is reductive. Furthermore, we address the case where G is connected and…
In this article, we introduce an approach to study the fundamental group of a log terminal T-variety. As applications, we prove the simply connectedness of the spectrum of the Cox ring of a complex Fano variety, we compute the fundamental…
We study certain foliated complex manifolds that behave similarly to complete nonsingular toric varieties. We classify them by combinatorial objects that we call marked fans. We describe the basic cohomology algebras of them in terms of…
Toric varieties are a special class of rational varieties defined by equations of the form {\it monomial = monomial}. For a good brief survey of the history and role of toric varieties see [10]. Any toric variety $X$ contains a cover by…
Using the language of T-varieties, we study torus invariant curves on a complete normal variety $X$ with an effective codimension-one torus action. In the same way that the $T$-invariant Weil divisors on $X$ are sums of "vertical" divisors…
Algebraic actions of unipotent groups $U$ actions on affine $k-$varieties $X$ ($k$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0) for which the algebraic quotient $X//U$ has small dimension are considered$.$ In case $X$ is factorial,…
We describe polarized complexity-one T-varieties combinatorially in terms of so-called divisorial polytopes, and show how geometric properties of such a variety can be read off the corresponding divisorial polytope. We compare our…
The complexity of a pair $(X,B)$ is an invariant that relates the dimension of $X$, the rank of the group of divisors, and the coefficients of $B$. If the complexity is less than one, then $X$ is a toric variety. We prove that if the…
We study affine toric varieties with an action of group $SL_n$ with a dense orbit. A characterisation in terms of $SL_n \times Q$-modules is given where $Q$ is a quasitorus. This characterisation is more explicitly expanded in case $n=3$.…
Generalized Cox's construction associates with an algebraic variety a remarkable invariant -- its total coordinate ring, or Cox ring. In this note we give a new proof of factoriality of the Cox ring when the divisor class group of the…
Let F be a finite group and X be a complex quasi-projective F-variety. For r in N, we consider the mixed Hodge-Deligne polynomials of quotients X^r/F, where F acts diagonally, and compute them for certain classes of varieties X with simple…
We construct an irreducible representation for the extended affine algebra of type $sl_2$ with coordinates in a quantum torus. We explicitly give formulas using vertex operators similar to those found in the theory of the infinite rank…
K. Altmann and J. Hausen have shown that affine T-varieties can be described in terms of p-divisors. Given a p-divisor describing a T-variety X, we show how to construct new p-divisors describing X with respect to actions by larger tori.…
Let h be a regular semisimple element in a complex simple Lie algebra g. Let t be an indeterminate. We consider the "variety" of Iwahori subalgebras of g tensored with power series in t which contain t times h. This variety admits a free…
In this paper we prove that if two normal affine surfaces $S$ and $S'$ have isomorphic automorphism groups, then every connected algebraic group acting regularly and faithfully on $S$ acts also regularly and faithfully on $S'$. Moreover, if…
Let $T$ be a compact torus. We prove that, up to equivariant rational equivalence, the category of $T$-simply connected, $T$-finite type $T$-spaces with finitely many isotropy types is completely described by certain finite systems of…
We classify irreducible integrable modules with finite-dimensional weight spaces for toroidal Lie algebras coordinated by rational quantum torus with trivial central action. Let $\mathbb{C}_q$ denote the rational quantum torus associated…
Let $X$ be a smooth affine algebraic variety over the field of complex numbers which is contractible. Then every algebraic $G$-torsor on $X$ is algebraically trivial if $G$ is a semi-simple algebraic group. We also show that if $X$ is a…
