Stably rational algebraic tori
The rationality of a stably rational torus with a cyclic splitting field is proved.

On donne une forme géométrique à la théorie classique des invariants pour le groupe spécial linéaire, le groupe orthogonal et le groupe symplectique. On démontre aussi un critère de normalité pour les variétés algébriques affines où opère un groupe algébrique réductif connexe.
R. Rimányi defined the incidence class of two singularities η and ζ as [η]|ζ, the restriction of the Thom polynomial of η to ζ. He conjectured that (under mild conditions) [η]|ζ ≠ 0 ⇔ ζ ⊂ . Generalizing this notion we define the incidence class of two orbits η and ζ of a representation. We give a sufficient condition (positivity) for ζ to have the property that [η]|ζ ≠ 0 ⇔ ζ ⊂ for any other orbit η. We show that for many interesting cases, e.g. the quiver representations of Dynkin type positivity...
