When are two subvarieties of matrices conjugate?
Let $X$ and $Y$ be two subvarieties of $n\times n$ matrices. My question is that is there any condition to guarantee that there exits some matrix $g$ such that $Y=g^{-1} X g$? If such $g$ exists, then ...

Orbits of tensor product $\operatorname{St}_2\otimes\operatorname{Sym}^2(\mathbb C ^3)$
Let $G_1=\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbb C)$ act on $V_1=\mathbb C^2$ via the standard multiplication. Denote this representation by $\operatorname{St}_2$. Let $G_2=\operatorname{SL}_3(\mathbb C^3)$ act ...

$k$ structures on $K$ vector spaces
The following statement is made in Borel's Linear Algebraic groups, section 11 on $k$ structures.
Let $V$ and $W$ be $K$ vector spaces with $k$ structures. If $f:V\to W$ is $K$ linear, then $f$ is ...
