Open publisher page 132 citations

Abstract

Let G be a reductive algebraic group and X an algebraic G-variety which admits a quotient it: X → X//G. In this article we describe several results concerning the Picard group Pic(X//G) of the quotient and the group Picc(X) of G-line bundles on X. For some further development of the subject we refer to the survey articles [Kr89a], [Kr89b].
