On orbits of the automorphism group on an affine toric variety

Ivan Arzhantsev, Ivan Bazhov (2013)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

Let X be an affine toric variety. The total coordinates on X provide a canonical presentation X ¯ → X of X as a quotient of a vector space X ¯ by a linear action of a quasitorus. We prove that the orbits of the connected component of the automorphism group Aut(X) on X coincide with the Luna strata defined by the canonical quotient presentation.

Similarity:

Let a reductive group G act on an algebraic variety X . We give a Hilbert-Mumford type criterion for the construction of open G -invariant subsets V ⊂ X admitting a good quotient by G .

Similarity:

Let W be a closed algebraic subvariety of the n -dimensional projective space over the complex or real numbers and suppose that W is non-empty and equidimensional. In this paper we generalize the classic notion of polar variety of W associated with a given linear subvariety of the ambient space of W . As particular instances of this new notion of generalized polar variety we reobtain the classic ones and two new types of polar varieties, called dual and (in case that W is affine) conic....
