Abstract: | Let k
n] = kx
1,…, x
n
] be the polynomial algebra in n variables and let
\mathbbAn = \textSpec \boldk n ] {\mathbb{A}^n} = {\text{Spec}}{{\bold{k}}^{\left n \right]}} . In this note we show that the root vectors of
\textAu\textt*( \mathbbAn ) {\text{Au}}{{\text{t}}^*}\left( {{\mathbb{A}^n}} \right) , the subgroup of volume preserving automorphisms in the affine Cremona group
\textAut( \mathbbAn ) {\text{Aut}}\left( {{\mathbb{A}^n}} \right) , with respect to the diagonal torus are exactly the locally nilpotent derivations x
α
(∂/∂x
i
), where x
α
is any monomial not depending on x
i
. This answers a question posed by Popov. |
