Abstract: Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field. Let $G$ be a non-trivial connected unipotent group, which acts effectively on an affine variety $X.$ Then every non-empty component $R$ of the set of fixed points of $G$ is a $K$-uniruled variety, i.e, there exists an affine cylinder $WimesK$ and a dominant, generically-finite polynomial mapping $phi:WimesKightarrowR.$ We show also that if an arbitrary infinite algebraic group $G$ acts effectively on $K^n$ and the set of fixed points contains a hypersurface $H$, then this hypersurface is $K$-uniruled.
