Weighted multidegrees of polynomial automorphisms over a domain

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The notion of the weighted degree of a polynomial is a basic tool in Affine Algebraic Geometry. In this paper, we study the properties of the weighted multidegrees of polynomial automorphisms by a new approach which focuses on stable coordinates. We also present some applications of the generalized Shestakov-Umirbaev theory.


This is part of sequence of papers dedicated to the subject named by Kuroda as ``Shestakov-Umirbaev theory. The paper devoted to so called \textit{weighted multidegrees}.NEWLINENEWLINELet \(A= k[X_1, \dots, X_n]\) be a polynomial ring in \(n\) variables over \(k\). Let \(\Gamma\) be an ordered additive group and let \({\mathbf w}= (w_1, \dots, w_n) \in \Gamma^n\). Then the ring \(A\) can be given a \({\mathbf w}\)-weighted grading by defining \(\mathrm{wt}({X_1}^{a_1}\cdots{X_n}^{a_n})\) to be \(\sum_i{a_i w_i}\). For a polynomial \(f \in A\), \(\deg_w f \) is defined to be the maximum of all the weights of monomials present in \(f\) and \(f^{\mathbf w}\) the sum of all the monomials present in \(f\) of weight \(\deg_w f \). For a \(k\)-algebra automorphism \(F= (f_1, \dots, f_n)\) of \(A\), the \({\mathbf w}\)-weighted degree and \({\mathbf w}\)-weighted multidegree are \(\deg_w F =\sum_{i=1}^n \deg_w f_i\) and \(\mathrm{mdeg}_w F=(\deg_w f_1, \dots, \deg_w f_n)\) respectively.NEWLINENEWLINEThe author proves some important properties for weighted multydegree of authomorphism and tame authomorphism, give us some criteria for weighted mutydegree to be multydegree of an authomorphism and tame authomorphism (in dimension 3).NEWLINENEWLINEOne of the important ingredient of proof is degree estimation (Shestakov-Umirbaev type statement) including several variables generalization, mad by Kuroda (degree of wedje product of differentials).
