GIT stability and biquotients of $SU(3)$
Abstract
We study double-sided actions of $(\mathbb{C}^*)^2$ on $SL(3,\mathbb{C})/U$ and the associated quotients, where $U$ is a maximal unipotent subgroup of $SL(3,\mathbb{C})$. The main results of this paper are a sufficient condition for the double-sided quotient to agree with the quotient in terms of the geometric invariant theory (GIT), and an explicit necessary and sufficient condition for $SL(3,\mathbb{C})/U$ to agree with the $\chi$-stable locus in its affine closure. We apply this result to characterize certain complex structures on $SU(3)$ which are not left invariant by means of the GIT quotient.
