Aug 15, 2022 at 9:46 comment added H U @Baobab The comment "the inverse image of $Z$ with respect to the morphism $G\times X\rightarrow X$ is $G\times X$" is needed to apply the universal property of blow ups. See Chapter 2, Prop 7.14 of Hartshorne. Also yes the final comment should be "gives an action of $G$ on $\tilde{X}$".
Sep 30, 2020 at 15:38 comment added Baobab I apologize since the post is quite old, but I don't understand some passages: which do you need to say that the inverse image of $Z$ is $G\times Z$ (i.e., where do you use it?)? isn't there a typo on the sentence "the morphism $G\times \tilde{X}\to \tilde{X}$ gives an action of $G$ to $X$: shouldn't there be written an action to $G$ on $\tilde{X}$? Thanks in advance for the patience.
