By an additive action on an algebraic variety $X$ we mean a regular effective action $\mathbb{G}_a^n\times X\to X$ with an open orbit of the commutative unipotent group $\mathbb{G}_a^n$. In this paper, we give a classification of additive…
Given a connected reductive algebraic group $G$ and a Borel subgroup $B \subseteq G$, we study $B$-normalized one-parameter additive group actions on affine spherical $G$-varieties. We establish basic properties of such actions and their…
In this paper we find a representative of each orbit of the adjoint action of a real affine classical group of its Lie algebra. These orbits are not determined by the usual Jordan invariants of eigenvalues and block sizes, but require a…
We generalize to the super context, the known fact that if an affine algebraic group $G$ over a commutative ring $k$ acts freely (in an appropriate sense) on an affine scheme $X$ over $k$, then the dur sheaf $X\tilde{\tilde{/}}G$ of…
This paper studies separating invariants of finite groups acting on affine varieties through automorphisms. Several results, proved by Serre, Dufresne, Kac-Watanabe and Gordeev, and Jeffries and Dufresne exist that relate properties of the…
An induced additive action on a projective variety $X\subseteq\mathbb{P}^n$ is a regular action of the group $\mathbb{G}_a^n$ on $X$ with an open orbit that can be extended to a regular action on $\mathbb{P}^n$. Such actions are known to…
Generalizing the passage from a fan to a toric variety, we provide a combinatorial approach to construct arbitrary effective torus actions on normal, algebraic varieties. Based on the notion of a ``proper polyhedral divisor'' introduced in…
The main goal of this article is to generalize Mess' work and using results from Labourie--Wentworth, Potrie--Sambarino and Smilga, to show that inside Hitchin representations, infinitesimal deformations of Fuchsian representations of a…
We construct examples of normal affine varieties X of dimension greater than or equal to 4 such that the group of special automorphisms SAut(X) acts on X with an open orbit O and the complement X\O has codimension one.
We give a characterization of flat affine connections on manifolds by means of a natural affine representation of the universal covering of the Lie group of diffeomorphisms preserving the connection. From the infinitesimal point of view,…
In this paper we classify SL_2-actions on normal affine T-varieties that are normalized by the torus T. This is done in terms of a combinatorial description of T-varieties given by Altmann and Hausen. The main ingredient is a generalization…
This work sets the statistical affine shape theory in the context of real normed division algebras. The general densities apply for every field: real, complex, quaternion, octonion, and for any noncentral and non-isotropic elliptical…
For a semisimple real Lie group $G$ with an irreducible representation $\rho$ on a finite-dimensional real vector space $V$, we give a sufficient criterion on $\rho$ for existence of a group of affine transformations of $V$ whose linear…
Let X be an irreducible affine T-variety. We consider families of affine stable toric T-varieties over X and give a description of the corresponding moduli space as the quotient stack of an open subscheme in a certain toric Hilbert scheme…
A description of transitive actions of a semisimple algebraic group G on toric varieties is obtained. Every toric variety admitting such an action lies between a product of punctured affine spaces and a product of projective spaces. The…
In this paper, we study a natural class of groups that act as affine transformations of $\mathbb T^N$. We investigate whether these solvable, "abelian-by-cyclic," groups can act smoothly and nonaffinely on $\mathbb T^N$ while remaining…
We find polyhedral divisors corresponding to the torus action of complexity one on affine trinomial hypersurfaces. Explicit computations for particular classes of such hypersurfaces including Pham-Brieskorn surfaces and rational trinomial…
This is a continuation of the authors' previous work [math.AT/9910001] on classification of equivariant complex vector bundles over a circle. In this paper we classify equivariant real vector bundles over a circle with a compact Lie group…
The first part of this paper is a refinement of Winkelmann's work on invariant rings and quotients of algebraic groups actions on affine varieties, where we take a more geometric point of view. We show that the (algebraic) quotient…
We introduce a new family of invariants of real algebraic sets defined in terms of the topology of their complexifications and compute some of these invariants for spheres. This allows us to completely classify topological isomorphism…
