Finite-generation conjecture for infinite transitivity on generically flexible varieties

A family F\mathfrak{F} of Ga\mathbb{G}_a-subgroups of Aut(X)\operatorname{Aut}(X) is called saturated if it contains every replica of each of its members and is closed under conjugation by the subgroup it generates. A variety XX is generically flexible if SAut(X)\operatorname{SAut}(X) acts on XX with an open orbit. For a finite collection of Ga\mathbb{G}_a-subgroups H1,,HNH_1,\ldots,H_N of Aut(X)\operatorname{Aut}(X), write G=H1,,HNG=\langle H_1,\ldots,H_N\rangle. Finite-generation conjecture. Any generically flexible affine variety XX admits a finite collection {H1,,HN}\{H_1,\ldots,H_N\} of Ga\mathbb{G}_a-subgroups of Aut(X)\operatorname{Aut}(X) such that GG acts infinitely transitively on its open orbit. The paper develops weaker conditions than saturation that guarantee infinite transitivity and proves that every generically flexible variety has a countable, rather than necessarily finite, generating family; the finite-generation assertion is presented as a conjecture.
