About the Cover: Invariants

It carries a natural action of G = SL2(C) via linear substitutions of the variables. In 1868 P. Gordan proved that the algebra C[V ] of G-invariant polynomials on V has a finite basis and that the module of algebraic relations between the generators (called syzygies) is also finitely generated, and he provided explicit upper bounds for the degrees of the generators and relations. Previously, Ca...
