Group actions on varieties or schemes (quotients) (14L30) Linear algebraic groups over arbitrary fields (20G15) Valuations and their generalizations for commutative rings (13A18)

Abstract: Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over a field. We show that, under mild assumptions, in a family of primitive generically free $G$-varieties over a base variety $B$ the essential dimension of the geometric fibers may drop on a countable union of Zariski closed subsets of $B$ and stays constant away from this countable union. We give several applications of this result.
