Abstract:
Let R be a normal affine domain over the algebraically closed field k, and let G be a connected algebraic group acting rationally on R. It is shown that the divisor class group of ${R^G}$ is a homomorphic image of an extension of a subgroup of the class group of R by a subquotient of the character group of G. In particular, if R has finitely generated class group, so does ${R^G}$.References
