Isotropy subgroups of homogeneous locally nilpotent derivations

Abstract

We say that a locally nilpotent derivations $\delta$ is maximal if there are no inequivalent locally nilpotent derivations that commute with $\delta$. The paper gives a description of isotropy groups of maximal homogeneous locally nilpotent derivations on affine toric varieties and on certain trinomial hypersurfaces. Moreover, the criteria for homogeneous locally nilpotent derivations to be maximal were obtained for these classes of varieties.
