Rational Invariants of a Group Action
نویسنده
چکیده
This article is based on an introductory lecture delivered at the Journée Nationales de Calcul Formel that took place at the Centre International de Recherche en Mathématiques (2013) in Marseille. We introduce basic notions on algebraic group actions and their invariants. Based on geometric consideration, we present algebraic constructions for a generating set of rational invariants. http://hal.inria.fr/hal-00839283

Rational, Replacement, and Local Invariants of a Group Action
The paper presents a new algorithmic construction of a finite generating set of rational invariants for the rational action of an algebraic group on the affine space. The construction provides an algebraic counterpart of the moving frame method in differential geometry. The generating set of rational invariants appears as the coefficients of a Gröbner basis, reduction with respect to which allo...
متن کاملSmooth and Algebraic Invariants of a Group Action: Local and Global Constructions
We provide an algebraic formulation of the moving frame method for constructing local smooth invariants on a manifold under an action of a Lie group. This formulation gives rise to algorithms for constructing rational and replacement invariants. The latter are algebraic over the field of rational invariants and play a role analogous to Cartan’s normalized invariants in the smooth theory. The al...
متن کاملRational invariants of a group action. Construction and rewriting
Geometric constructions applied to a rational action of an algebraic group lead to a new algorithm for computing rational invariants. A finite generating set of invariants appears as the coefficients of a reduced Gröbner basis. The algorithm comes in two variants. In the first construction the ideal of the graph of the action is considered. In the second one the ideal of a cross-section is adde...
متن کاملComputing the Invariants of Finite Abelian Groups
We investigate the computation and applications of rational invariants of the linear action of a finite abelian group in the non-modular case. By diagonalization, the group action is accurately described by an integer matrix of exponents. We make use of linear algebra to compute a minimal generating set of invariants and the substitution to rewrite any invariant in terms of this generating set....
متن کاملThe Structure of the Rational Concordance Group of Knots
We study the group of rational concordance classes of codimension two knots in rational homology spheres. We give a full calculation of its algebraic theory by developing a complete set of new invariants. For computation, we relate these invariants with limiting behaviour of the Artin reciprocity over an infinite tower of number fields and analyze it using tools from algebraic number theory. In...
