Borel fixed-point theorem

Borel fixed-point theorem

In mathematics, the Borel fixed-point theorem is a fixed-point theorem in algebraic geometry. The result was proved by the Swiss mathematician Armand Borel in 1956.

tatement of the theorem

Let "G" be a connected, solvable algebraic group acting regularly on a non-empty, complete algebraic variety "V" over an algebraically closed field "k". Then "G" has a fixed point in "V".
