  • rees algebras of Additive Group actions
    arXiv: Algebraic Geometry, 2019
    Co-Authors: Adrien Dubouloz, Isac Heden, Takashi Kishimoto
    Abstract:

    We establish basic properties of a sheaf of graded algebras canonically associated to every relative affine scheme $f : X \rightarrow S$ endowed with an action of the Additive Group scheme $\mathbb{G}_{ a,S}$ over a base scheme or algebraic space $S$, which we call the (relative) Rees algebra of the $\mathbb{G}_{ a,S}$-action. We illustrate these properties on several examples which played important roles in the development of the algebraic theory of locally nilpotent derivations and give some applications to the construction of families of affine threefolds with Ga-actions.

  • Rationally integrable vector fields and rational Additive Group actions
    International Journal of Mathematics, 2016
    Co-Authors: Adrien Dubouloz, Alvaro Liendo
    Abstract:

    We characterize rational actions of the Additive Group on algebraic varieties defined over a field of characteristic zero in terms of a suitable integrability property of their associated velocity vector fields. This extends the classical correspondence between regular actions of the Additive Group on affine algebraic varieties and the so-called locally nilpotent derivations of their coordinate rings. Our results lead in particular to a complete characterization of regular Additive Group actions on semi-affine varieties in terms of their associated vector fields. Among other applications, we review properties of the rational counterpart of the Makar–Limanov invariant for affine varieties and describe the structure of rational homogeneous Additive Group actions on toric varieties.

  • Additive Group actions on danielewski varieties and the cancellation problem
    Mathematische Zeitschrift, 2006
    Co-Authors: Adrien Dubouloz
    Abstract:

    Given complex algebraic varieties X and Y of the same dimension, the Cancellation Problem asks if an isomorphism between X × \(\mathbb{C}\) and Y × \(\mathbb{C}\) induces an isomorphism between X and Y. Iitaka and Fujita (J. Fac. Sci. Univ. 24:123–127, 1977) established that the answer is positive for a large class of varieties of any dimension. In 1989, Danielewski constructed a counterexample using smooth rational affine surfaces. His construction was further generalized by Fieseler (Comment. Math. Helvetici 69:5–27, 1994) and Wilkens (C.R. Acad. Sci. Paris Ser. I Math. 326(9):1111–1116, 1998) to describe a larger class of affine surfaces. Here we introduce higher-dimensional analogues of these surfaces. By studying algebraic actions of the Additive Group \(\mathbb{C}_{+}\) on certain of these varieties, we obtain new counterexamples to the Cancellation Problem in every dimension d ≥ 2.

  • Additive Group actions on danielewski varieties and the cancellation problem
    arXiv: Algebraic Geometry, 2005
    Co-Authors: Adrien Dubouloz
    Abstract:

    The cancellation problem asks if two complex algebraic varieties X and Y of the same dimension such that X\times\mathbb{C} and Y\times\mathbb{C} are isomorphic are isomorphic. Iitaka and Fujita established that the answer is positive for a large class of varieties of any dimension. In 1989, Danielewski constructed a famous counter-example using smooth affine surfaces with Additive Group actions. His construction was further generalized by Fieseler and Wilkens to describe a larger class of affine surfaces. Here we construct higher dimensional analogues of these surfaces. We study algebraic actions of the Additive Group \mathbb{C}\_{+} on certain of these varieties, and we obtain counter-examples to the cancellation problem in any dimension n\geq2 .

  • Additive Group actions on affine t varieties of complexity one in arbitrary characteristic
    Journal of Algebra, 2016
    Co-Authors: Kevin Langlois, Alvaro Liendo
    Abstract:

    Abstract Let X be a normal affine T -variety of complexity at most one over a perfect field k, where T = G m n stands for the split algebraic torus. Our main result is a classification of Additive Group actions on X that are normalized by the T -action. This generalizes the classification given by the second author in the particular case where k is algebraically closed and of characteristic zero. With the assumption that the characteristic of k is positive, we introduce the notion of rationally homogeneous locally finite iterative higher derivations which corresponds geometrically to Additive Group actions on affine T -varieties normalized up to a Frobenius map. As a preliminary result, we provide a complete description of these G a -actions in the toric situation.

  • the separating variety for the basic representations of the Additive Group
    Journal of Algebra, 2013
    Co-Authors: Emilie Dufresne, Martin Kohls
    Abstract:

    Abstract For a Group G acting on an affine variety X, the separating variety is the closed subvariety of X × X encoding which points of X are separated by invariants. We concentrate on the indecomposable rational linear representations V n of dimension n + 1 of the Additive Group of a field of characteristic zero, and decompose the separating variety into the union of irreducible components. We show that if n is odd, divisible by four, or equal to two, the closure of the graph of the action, which has dimension n + 2 , is the only component of the separating variety. In the remaining cases, there is a second irreducible component of dimension n + 1 . We conclude that in these cases, there are no polynomial separating algebras.

  • on the finite generation of Additive Group invariants in positive characteristic
    Journal of Algebra, 2010
    Co-Authors: Emilie Dufresne, Andreas Maurischat
    Abstract:

    Abstract Roberts, Freudenburg, and Daigle and Freudenburg have given the smallest counterexamples to Hilbert's fourteenth problem as rings of invariants of algebraic Groups. Each is of an action of the Additive Group on a finite dimensional vector space over a field of characteristic zero, and thus, each is the kernel of a locally nilpotent derivation. In positive characteristic, Additive Group actions correspond to locally finite iterative higher derivations. We set up characteristic-free analogs of the three examples, and show that, contrary to characteristic zero, in every positive characteristic, the invariants are finitely generated.
