Flexibility conjecture for affine spherical varieties
Flexibility conjecture for affine spherical varieties
Let be a reductive group and let be an affine spherical -variety, meaning that is an irreducible normal algebraic -variety on which a Borel subgroup of has an open orbit. Suppose that has no non-constant invertible regular functions, equivalently .
Flexibility conjecture. is flexible.
This conjecture concerns the relationship between spherical group actions and flexibility, a strong form of transitivity generated by additive-group actions. It was proposed in the cited work; the supplied source does not indicate whether it has been resolved.
