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…

We consider complete toric varieties $X$ such that a maximal unipotent subgroup $U$ of the automorphism group $\text{Aut}(X)$ acts on $X$ with an open orbit. It turns out that such varieties can be characterized by several remarkable…

With every nontrivial connected algebraic group $G$ we associate a positive integer ${\rm gtd}(G)$ called the generic transitivity degree of $G$ and equal to the maximal $n$ such that there is a nontrivial action of $G$ on an irreducible…

Let $G$ and $A$ be finite groups with $A$ acting on $G$ by automorphisms. In this paper we introduce the concept of "good action"; namely we say the action of $A$ on $G$ is good, if $H=[H,B]C_H(B)$ for every subgroup $B$ of $A$ and every…

We systematically produce algebraic varieties with torus action by constructing them as suitably embedded subvarieties of toric varieties. The resulting varieties admit an explicit treatment in terms of toric geometry and graded ring…

In this paper, for any simple, simply connected algebraic group $G$ of type $B_n,C_n$ or $D_n$ and for any maximal parabolic subgroup $P$ of $G$, we describe all minimal dimensional Schubert varieties in $G/P$ admitting semistable points…

We give an explicit approach to quotienting affine varieties by linear actions of linear algebraic groups with graded unipotent radical, using results from projective Non-Reductive GIT. Our quotients come with explicit projective…

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…

We study the action of a real reductive group G on a real submanifold X of a K"ahler manifold Z. We suppose that the action of G extends holomorphically to an action of a complex reductive group and is Hamiltonian with respect to a…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a perfect field $k$ acting on an algebraic variety $X$ and let $P$ be a minimal parabolic subgroup of $G$. For $k$-spherical $G$-varieties we prove finiteness result for $P$-orbits that contain…

Let $G$ be a reductive affine algebraic group, and let $X$ be an affine algebraic $G$-variety. We establish a (poly)stability criterion for points $x\in X$ in terms of intrinsically defined closed subgroups $H_{x}$ of $G$, and relate it…

Consider an effective Hamiltonian torus action $T\times M \to M$ on a topologically twisted,generalized complex manifold $M$ of dimension $2n$. We prove that the $rank(T) \leq n-2$ and that the topological twisting survives Hamiltonian…

We present a general algorithm for constructing a free resolution for unit groups of orders in semisimple rational algebras. The approach is based on computing a contractible $G$-complex employing the theory of minimal classes of quadratic…

We estimate the growth rate of the function which counts the number of torsion points of order at most $T$ on an algebraic subvariety of the algebraic torus $\mathbb G_m^n$ over some algebraically closed field. We prove a general upper…

An action of a group $G$ is highly transitive if $G$ acts transitively on $k$-tuples of distinct points for all $k \geq 1$. Many examples of groups with a rich geometric or dynamical action admit highly transitive actions. We prove that if…

We generalize a result of Hochman in two simultaneous directions: Instead of realizing an effectively closed $\mathbb{Z}^d$ action as a factor of a subaction of a $\mathbb{Z}^{d+2}$-SFT we realize an action of a finitely generated group…
