Stability of nodal hypersurfaces
We denote by $\Pi_{n,d}$ the space of homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$ in $n+1$ variables $x_0,\ldots,x_n$, i.e. $\Pi_{n,d}=\Gamma(\mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{C}),\mathcal{O}(d))$. The group $G=SL(n+1)$ ...

Pseudoreflection groups in affine varieties
Suppose $\mathsf{k}$ is an algebraically closed field of zero characteristic. Chevalley-Shephard-Todd (C-S-T) Theorem in one of its equivalent versions is the following result:
(C-S-T): Let $G$ be a ...

GIT quotient of a reductive Lie algebra by the maximal torus
Let $G$ be a connected complex reductive group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. One knows a lot about the GIT quotient $\mathfrak{g}/\!/G$: the invariant ring is a free polynomial algebra on $\mathrm{...

A good stratification of a variety on which an algebraic group acts
Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic 0
(a reduced separated scheme of finite type over $k$).

GIT quotient and orbifolds
Let $G$ be a connected complex reductive group. Suppose $G$ acts on a smooth complex affine variety $X$. Assume the stabiliser $G_x$ of every point $x\in X$ is finite. Is it true that $X/\!/G$ is an ...

When the action of reductive group on algebraic variety is not equidimensional?
I saw the question When is an almost geometric quotient flat? which said
"The quotient $\pi$ is flat if and only if $\pi$ is equidimensional and $X$ is smooth".
I am curious is there an ...
