Group actions on varieties or schemes (quotients) (14L30) Secant varieties, tensor rank, varieties of sums of powers (14N07) Representation theory for linear algebraic groups (20G05)

Abstract: We define a GL-variety to be a (typically infinite dimensional) algebraic variety equipped with an action of the infinite general linear group under which the coordinate ring forms a polynomial representation. Such varieties have been used to study asymptotic properties of invariants like strength and tensor rank, and played a key role in two recent proofs of Stillman's conjecture. We initiate a systematic study of GL-varieties, and establish a number of foundational results about them. For example, we prove a version of Chevalley's theorem on constructible sets in this setting.
