Abstract

Let X/kX/k be a noetherian scheme over a field kk of characteristic 0, such that the residue field at its closed points are algebraic extensions of kk. Let gX/kTX/k{\mathfrak g}_{X/k}\subset T_{{X/k}} be an OX{\mathcal O}_{X}-submodule of the tangent sheaf which is closed under the Lie bracket. We construct a stratification of the subset of closed points in XX by locally closed subsets that are preserved by gX/k{\mathfrak g}_{X/k}, on which gX/k{\mathfrak g}_{X/k} acts transitively.

Comments

There are simple counterexamples to Lemma 1.1, so there may not exist any "defining points"
