We study actions of $U'$ on affine $G$-varieties. First, we consider the algebra of $U'$ invariants on $G/U$. We prove that $k[G/U]^{U'}$ is a polynomial algebra of Krull dimension $2r$, where $r=rk(G)$. A related result is that, for any simple finite-dimensional $G$-module $V$, $V^{U'}$ is a cyclic $U/U'$-module. Second, we study \"symmetries\" of Poincare series for $U'$-invariants on affine conical $G$-varieties. Third, we obtain a classification of simple $G$-modules $V$ with polynomial algebras of $U'$-invariants (for $G$ simple).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-12-07T13:12:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14L30" ], "keywords": [ "maximal unipotent subgroup", "derived group", "polynomial algebra", "invariants", "connected semisimple group" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 23, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0812.1343P" } } }
