Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and $\mathbb{G}_a$ be the additive group of $\mathbb{K}$. We say that an irreducible algebraic variety $X$ of dimension $n$ over the field $\mathbb{K}$ admits an…
By an additive action on an algebraic variety $X$ over $\mathbb{C}$, we mean an action of the group $\mathbb{G}_a^n = \mathbb{C}^n $ on $X$ with an open orbit. We study limit points of one-dimensional subgroups of $\mathbb{G}_a^n$ for…

By an additive structure on a hypersurface S in projective space we mean an effective action of commutative unipotent group on projective space which leaves S invariant and acts on S with an open orbit. It is known that these structures…
For a projective variety $X$ in $\mathbb{P}^{m}$ of dimension $n$, an additive action on $X$ is an effective action of $\mathbb{G}_{a}^{n}$ on $\mathbb{P}^{m}$ such that $X$ is $\mathbb{G}_{a}^{n}$-invariant and the induced action on $X$…
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…
A group action is said to be highly-transitive if it is $k$-transitive for every $k \ge 1$. The main result of this thesis is the following: Main Theorem: The fundamental group of a closed, orientable surface of genus > 1 admits a…
We study the algebraic hyperbolicity of very general hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^m \times \mathbb{P}^n$ by using three techniques that build on past work by Ein, Voisin, Pacienza, Coskun and Riedl, and others. As a result, we completely…
We introduce the notion of a graded group action on a graded algebra or, which is the same, a group action by graded pseudoautomorphisms. An algebra with such an action is a natural generalization of an algebra with a super- or a…
We consider surjective endomorphisms f of degree > 1 on the projective n-space with n = 3, and f^{-1}-stable hypersurfaces V. We show that V is a hyperplane (i.e., deg(V) = 1) but with four possible exceptions; it is conjectured that deg(V)…
By an additive action on an algebraic variety $X$ of dimension $n$ we mean a regular action $\mathbb{G}_a^n \times X \to X$ with an open orbit of the commutative unipotent group $\mathbb{G}_a^n$. We prove that if a complete toric variety…
If $X \subset \mathbb P^n$ is a reduced subscheme, we say that $X$ admits an unexpected hypersurface of degree $t$ for multiplicity $m$ if the imposition of having multiplicity $m$ at a general point $P$ fails to impose the expected number…
Let $X$ be a cubic hypersurface in $\mathbb P^6$ or a hypersurface of degree greater than equal to $7$ in $\mathbb P^5$. In this note we try to understand, for a very general hyperplane section of $X$, the non-injectivity locus of the…
Given a suitable action on a complex projective variety X of a non-reductive affine algebraic group H, this paper considers how to choose a reductive group G containing H and a projective completion of G x_H X which is a reductive envelope…
We find sharp upper bounds on the order of the automorphism group of a hypersurface in complex projective space in every dimension and degree. In each case, we prove that the hypersurface realizing the upper bound is unique up to…
