For an affine $T$-variety $X$ with the action of a torus $T$, this paper provides a combinatorial description of $X$ with respect to the action of a subtorus $T' \subset T$ in terms of a $T/T'$-invariant pp-divisor. We also describe the…

We extend the Altmann--Mavlyutov construction of homogeneous deformations of affine toric varieties to the case of toric pairs $(X, \partial X)$, where $X$ is an affine or projective toric variety and $\partial X$ is its toric boundary. As…

Let R be an affine PI-algebra over an algebraically closed field k and let G be an affine algebraic k-group that acts rationally by algebra automorphisms on R. For R prime and G a torus, we show that R has only finitely many G-prime ideals…

In this paper we construct an equivariant embedding of the affine space $\mathbb{A}^n$ with the translation group action into a complete non-projective algebraic variety $X$ for all $n \geq 3$. The theory of toric varieties is used as the…

We show that the presentation of affine $\mathbb{T}$-varieties of complexity one in terms of polyhedral divisors holds over an arbitrary field. We also describe a class of multigraded algebras over Dedekind domains. We study how the algebra…

Given an algebraic torus action on a normal projective variety with finitely generated total coordinate ring, we study the GIT-equivalence for not necessarily ample linearized divisors, and we provide a combinatorial description of the…

A generalized triangle group is a group that can be presented in the form $G = < x,y | x^p=y^q=w(x,y)^r=1>$, where $p,q,r\geq 2$ and $w(x,y)$ is a cyclically reduced word of length at least 2 in the free product $\Z_p*\Z_q=< x,y |…

We describe affine monoids whose group of invertible elements is an active semidirect product of a unipotent group and a torus, in terms of comultiplications on the algebra of regular functions. We introduce the notion of a root monoid,…

The automorphism group Aut(X) of an affine variety X is an ind-group. Its Lie algebra is canonically embedded into the Lie algebra VF(X) of vector fields on X. We study the relations between subgroups of Aut(X) and Lie subalgebras of VF(X).…

A smooth variety is called uniformly rational if every point admits a Zariski open neighborhood isomorphic to a Zariski open subset of the affine space. In this note we show that every smooth and rational affine variety endowed with an…

For a smooth quasi-affine variety $X$, the affine closure $\overline{T^*X} := \text{Spec}(\mathbb{K}[T^*X])$ contains $T^*X$ as an open subset, and its smooth locus carries a symplectic structure. A natural question is whether…
