Ring of invariants of some special type of subgroups of $GL_3(\mathbb C)$

For $\sigma \in \mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb C)$ and $f(x_1,...,x_n)\in \mathbb C[x_1,...,x_n]$, let $f^ \sigma (x):=f(\sigma^{-1}x)$, for $x=(x_1,...,x_n)$. For a subgroup $G$ of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb C)$...

Sufficient conditions for secondary invariants

Let $G$ be a finite group, $k$ be a field whose characteristic divides $|G|$, and $\rho:G\hookrightarrow\operatorname{GL}_n(k)$ be a faithful representation of $G$. Let $V$ be a $k$-space of dimension ...

Invariant polynomials under a group action (hidden GIT)

Let's say I start with the polynomial ring in $n$ variables $R = \mathbb{Z}[x_1,...,x_n]$ (in the case at hand I had $\mathbb{C}$ in place of $\mathbb{Z}$). Now the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ ...
