Generalizations of Cayley's \Omega-process

Abstract: In this paper we generalize some constructions and results due to Cayley and Hilbert. We define the concept of

O m e g a

--process for an arbitrary algebraic monoid with zero and unit group

G

. Then we show how to produce from the process and for a linear rational representation of

G

, a number of elements of the ring of

G

-invariants, that is large enough as to guarantee its finite generation. Moreover, we give an explicit construction of all

O m e g a

-processes for general reductive monoids and, in the case of the monoid of all the

n^{2}

matrices, compare our construction with Cayley's definition.
