In 2004, Shestakov and Umirbaev proved that the Nagata automorphism of the polynomial algebra in three variables is wild. We fix a [Formula: see text]-grading on this algebra and consider graded-wild automorphisms, i.e. such automorphisms that cannot be decomposed onto elementary automorphisms respecting the grading. We describe all gradings allowing graded-wild automorphisms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
