Abstract:

Let X be an open subvariety of an affine variety, i.e. a quasi-affine variety, over an algebraically closed field, and suppose the additive algebraic group ${G_a}$ acts on X. Then a geometric quotient of X by ${G_a}$ exists if and only if every point x of X has a ${G_a}$-stable open neighborhood U such that the morphism ${G_a} \times U \to U \times U$ which sends (t, u) to (tu, u) has closed image and finite fibres.
