    Let \(k\) be a field and \(G\) a group \(k\)-scheme of finite type. Call \(G\) a quasi-abelian variety if \(\mathcal{O}_G(G)=k.\) The main motivation to study quasi-abelian varieties is the fact that the classification of group schemes over fields is essentially reduced to the classification of quasi-abelian varieties and of affine group schemes. With respect to the structure of quasi-abelian varieties one notices that Chevalley's theorem implies that a quasi-abelian variety is a principal bundle over an abelian variety \(A\) with affine, commutative and connected structure group \(G.\) The authors classify principal bundles over anti-affine schemes with affine and commutative structure group. This yields the classification of quasi-abelian varieties over a field \(k\).
