Abstract

We consider the family of polynomials in C [ x , y , z ] of the form x 2 y - z 2 - x q ( x , z ) . Two such polynomials P 1 and P 2 are equivalent if there is an automorphism ϕ * of C [ x , y , z ] such that ϕ * ( P 1 ) = P 2 . We give a complete classification of the equivalence classes of these polynomials in the algebraic and analytic category. As a consequence, we find the following results. There are explicit examples of inequivalent polynomials P 1 and P 2 such that the zero set of P 1 + c is isomorphic to the zero set of P 2 + c for all c C . There exist polynomials which are algebraically inequivalent but analytically equivalent. There exist polynomials which are algebraically inequivalent but when considered as polynomials in C [ x , y , z , w ] become equivalent. This last result answers a problem posed in [7]. Finally, we get a complete classification of C + -actions on C 3 which are defined by a triangular locally nilpotent derivation of the form x 2 / z + ( 2 z + x q ( x , z ) ) / y .
