Root monoids and active algebraic groups
We describe affine monoids whose group of invertible elements is an active semidirect product of a unipotent group and a torus, in terms of comultiplications on the algebra of regular functions. We introduce the notion of a root monoid, which is constructed from a set of Demazure root pairs on an affine toric variety, and study the properties of such monoids.
