An additive action on an irreducible algebraic variety $X$ is an effective action $\mathbb{G}_a^n\times X\to X$ with an open orbit of the vector group $\mathbb{G}_a^n$. Any two additive actions on $X$ are conjugate by a birational…

We introduce partial group algebras with relations in a purely algebraic framework. Given a group and a set of relations, we define an algebraic partial action and prove that the resulting partial skew group ring is isomorphic to the…

We prove the following instance of a conjecture stated in arXiv:1103.4770. Let $G$ be an abelian semialgebraic group over a real closed field $R$ and let $X$ be a semialgebraic subset of $G$. Then the group generated by $X$ contains a…

We give an algebro-geometric classification of smooth real affine algebraic surfaces endowed with an effective action of the real algebraic circle group $\mathbb{S}^1$ up to equivariant isomorphisms. As an application, we show that every…

Rational transformations of polynomials are extensively studied in the context of finite fields, especially for the construction of irreducible polynomials. In this paper, we consider the factorization of rational transformations with…

For any finite $k$-group scheme $G$ acting rationally on a $k$-variety, if the action is generically free then the dimension of $\mathrm{Lie} (G)$ is upper bounded by the dimension of the variety. We show that this is the only obstruction…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let B be a finitely generated k-domain. We study semisimple derivations on B, with special emphasis on those whose eigenvalues are integers. For such derivations, after…

Let $K$ be a field, $G$ a finite group. Let $G$ act on the function field $L = K(x_{\sigma} : \sigma \in G)$ by $\tau \cdot x_{\sigma} = x_{\tau\sigma}$ for any $\sigma, \tau \in G$. Denote the fixed field of the action by $K(G) = L^{G} =…

Let $G$ be a finite 2-group and $K$ be a field satisfying that (i) $\fn{char}K\ne 2$, and (ii) $\sqrt{a}\in K$ for any $a\in K$. If $G$ acts on the rational function field $K(x,y,z)$ by monomial $K$-automorphisms, then the fixed field…

Given a partial action $\alpha=(A_g,\alpha_g)_{g\in \mathcal{G}}$ of a connected groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ on a ring $A$ and an object $x$ of $\mathcal{G}$, the isotropy group $\mathcal{G}(x)$ acts partially on the ideal $A_x$ of $A$ by the…

Given a partial action of a topological group $G$ on a space $X$, we determine properties $\mathcal P$ which can be extended from $X$ to its globalization. We treat the cases when $\mathcal P$ is any of the following: Hausdorff, regular,…

An arbitrary group action on an algebra $R$ results in an ideal $\mathfrak{r}$ of $R$. This ideal $\mathfrak{r}$ fits into the classical radical theory, and will be called the radical of the group action. If $R$ is a noetherian algebra with…

We study actions of linear algebraic groups on central simple algebras using algebro-geometric techniques. Suppose an algebraic group G acts on a central simple algebra A of degree n. We are interested in questions of the following type:…

We present some generalizations of the well-known correspondence, found by R. Exel, between partial actions of a group $G$ on a set $X$ and semigroup homomorphism of $S(G)$ on the semigroup $I(X)$ of partial bijections of $X,$ being $S(G)$…

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…
