Type A characterization by LND images and stable points

About 3 years old · traced to

Let YY be a variety, let K[Y]{\mathbb K}[Y] be its coordinate ring, and let II be the ideal of K[Y]{\mathbb K}[Y] generated by the images of all locally nilpotent derivations on YY. Let SAut(Y)\mathrm{SAut}(Y) denote the subgroup of Aut⁡(Y)\operatorname{Aut}(Y) generated by additive-group actions, and call a point SAut(Y)\mathrm{SAut}(Y)-stable if it is stable under this group. Type A conjecture. The following conditions are equivalent:

  • YY is of type A;
  • I=K[Y]I={\mathbb K}[Y];
  • YY has no SAut(Y)\mathrm{SAut}(Y)-stable points.

The conjecture proposes that the two existing descriptions of type A varieties—via the modified Derksen invariant and via the absence of stable points—are equivalent, beyond the cases established by the preceding propositions.
