GROUPS OF ALGEBRAIC TRANSFORMATIONS OF AFFINE VARIETIES FINAL REPORT FOR THE THREE YEARS
KARINE KUYUMZHIYAN

1. Results of this year During this year, we have studied the interconnections between different results on normality in combinatorial algebraic geometry. Normality is a property of a finite set of points which means that the cone generated by these points has no "holes". Algebraically it means that the corresponding monomial algebra is integrally closed in its field of fractions, and for the algebraic geometry it means normality of the corresponding variety. There are many criteria for normality for algebras constructed from a given graph; for the set of circuits of a matroid; and many other. In our work in progress with I. Arzhantsev, we will show that the result for graphs of Simis-Vasconcelov-Villarreal and Ohsugi-Hibi, can be deduced from the criterion due to B. Sturmfels for toric ideals. 2. Papers [1] with Fedor Bogomolov and Ilya Karzhemanov Unirationality and existence of infinitely transitive models Birational geometry, rational curves, and arithmetic, 2013, Ch. 4., p. 77­92. Boston: Birkhauser. In this paper, we study unirational algebraic varieties and the fields of rational functions on them. We show that after adding a finite number of variables some of these fields admit a so-called infinitely transitive model. The latter is an algebraic variety with the given field of rational functions and an infinitely transitive regular action of a group of algebraic automorphisms generated by unipotent algebraic subgroups. We expect that this property holds for all unirational varieties and in fact is a peculiar one for this class of algebraic varieties among those varieties which are rationally connected. 3.

other words, we look for pairs (G, V ), which are "good" in this sense. This question for adjoint modules was studied by J. Morand earlier, and then I continued this work for arbitrary simple modules of classical algebraic groups. During these three years, we (together with Ilya Bogdanov) have improved the metho ds, have simplified the proofs in the cases D5 and D6 , and then it became possible to deal with the exceptional groups, especially E6 . Now we have a complete classification of all such pairs (G, V ) and in all the other cases we present an orbit with non-normal closure. Unfortunately, we did not find any new nice example of an affine infinitely transitive variety, since is was proved that (for an algebraically closed field) they are all unirational, and we started to study this question from the another point of view. However, this question is still interesting, especially over R. The third question mentioned in the pro ject was infinite transitivity on each connected component for non-connected varieties over R. In all the known results, if an algebraic variety is infinitely transitive, it can be achieved by the actions decomposing into actions of one-parameter unipotent subgroups. Since over R there exist irreducible non-connected varieties, we cannot have even one-transitivity of any connected group of automorphisms. So we use the refined definition: a variety is infinitely transitive on each connected component, if for any two m1 +. . .+ms -tuples of points, where A1 , . . . , Am1 , B1 , . . . , Bm1 are from the first connected component, . . ., (equal number of points of both tuples on each connected component), there exist an automorphism mapping A1 to B1 , etc., Am1 +1 to Bm1 +1 , . . .. We proved (together with F. Mangolte) the theorem which says that a suspension over an infinitely transitive on each connected component variety is also an infinitely transitive on each connected component variety. Note that the number of connected components of the given variety can increase on each step.
