In 2004, Shestakov and Umirbaev proved that the Nagata automorphism of polynomial algebra in three variables is wild. We fix a [Formula: see text]-grading on this consider graded-wild automorphisms, i.e. such automorphisms cannot be decomposed onto elementary respecting grading. describe all gradings allowing automorphisms.
