Review text

The authors give a detailed exposition, including full proofs, of the determination of algebraic subgroups of \(GL_{2}(\mathbb{C})\) up to conjugation. Let \(\beta:GL_{2}(\mathbb{C})\rightarrow PGL_{2}(\mathbb{C})\simeq PSL_{2}(\mathbb{C})\) denote the canonical projection. The authors start from the classification of algebraic subgroups \(H\) of \(PGL_{2}(\mathbb{C})\). For each subgroup \(H\subset PGL_{2}(\mathbb{C})\), a subgroup \(G\subset GL_{2}(\mathbb{C})\) such that \(\beta(G)=H\) is \(\beta^{-1}(H)\) or has the form \(G=\mu_{k}\cdot H_{\min}\), where \(\mu_{k}\) is cyclic and \(H_{\min}\) is a minimal algebraic subgroup with image \(H\). The authors then determine by a case-by-case analysis, for each subgroup \(H\) of \(PGL_{2}(\mathbb{C)}\) of the classification, all corresponding minimal subgroups \(H_{\min}.\)
