Classification of visible actions for *reducible* representations?
Is there a classification of the pairs $(G,V)$ such that $G$ is reductive [and connected, if you like], and $G$ acts faithfully and visibly on $V$ - crucially, including all cases where $V$ is ...

Extensions of algebraic groups and extensions of fpqc sheaves
There are at least two ways to define $\operatorname{Ext}^p(F,G)$ when $F$ and $G$ are commutative algebraic groups over a field $k$:
Pass to the associated fppf sheaves and use an injective ...

Has the notion of a unipotent group scheme been studied?
The concept of a unipotent algebraic group over a field has been extensively studied and is fundamental in algebraic geometry. However, has the notion of a unipotent group scheme over a general base ...

Algebraicity of the group of equivariant automorphisms of an almost homogeneous variety
The base field is the field of complex numbers. Let $G$ be a connected linear algebraic group. Let $X$ be an almost homogeneous algebraic variety, i.e. $G$ acts on $X$ with a dense open orbit $U \...

Questions about the fixed point functor $X^G$ of a $G$-scheme
Let $X$ a (locally Noetherian; but not sure if that's really matter) $k$-scheme, $G$ a $k$-group scheme acting on $X$ via morphism $a:X \times G \to X$.
The fixed point functor of $X$ (where $X$ is ...
