The good quotient of the semi-stable foliations of \(\mathbb {CP}^{2}\) of degree \(1\) (Q1024707)

The author studies the group \(PGL(3, \mathbb {C})\) of automorphisms of \(\mathbb {CP}^{2}\) which acts linearly on the space of foliations of \(\mathbb {CP}^{2}\). The author obtains the unstable foliations using the numerical method of 1-parameter subgroups and proves that the good quotient of the semi-stable points for this action is \(\mathbb {CP}^{1}\).
