Embeddings of \({\mathbb{C}^*}\)-surfaces into weighted projective spaces (Q2655188)

The authors consider normal affine surfaces \(V\) which admit \(\mathbb{C}^*\) and \(\mathbb{C}_{+}\) actions. They already classified them in a different paper, but in this paper they show that in many cases, \(V\) can be embedded as a principal Zariski open subset into a hypersurface of a weighted projective space. In particular, they recover a result of D. Daigle and P. Russell: \textbf{Theorem 1.1.} Let \(V\) be a normal Gizatullin surface with a finite divisor class group. Then \(V\) can be embedded into a weighted projective plane minus a hypersurface.
