A non-triangular action of \({\mathbb{G}}_ a\) on \({\mathbb{A}}^ 3\) (Q760473): Difference between revisions

An automorphism \(f: {\mathbb{C}}^ n\to {\mathbb{C}}^ n,\) \(f(x)=(f_ 1(x),...,f_ n(x))\) is ''triangular'' if \(f_ i(x)\) depends only on \(x_ 1,...,x_ i\) \((i=1,...,n)\). A polynomial action of the additive group \({\mathbb{C}}\) on \({\mathbb{C}}^ 3\) is exhibited which cannot be conjugated, by a polynomial automorphism, into triangular form. Such examples do not exist on \({\mathbb{C}}^ 2\).
