Research Abstract |
Automorphisms of a polynomial ring are one of the main objects of study in Polynomial Ring Theory(Affine Algebraic Geometry). In 2003, Shestakov-Umirbaev published an epoch-making theory on automorphisms of a polynomial ring in three variables, and solved Nagata's conjecture which was open for a long time. Following the study of Shestakov-Umirbaev, we establish a useful and powerful method for analyzing automorphisms of polynomial rings in three variables, and proved various interesting theorems as applications.
