Abstract

In this work, we improve results of (Ressayre in Geometric invariant theory and generalized eigenvalue problem II, pp 1–25 2008; Ressayre in Ann. Inst. Fourier. 180:389–441 2010) on GIT-cones associated to the action of a reductive group G on a projective variety X. These results are applied to give a short proof of the Derksen–Weyman theorem that parametrizes bijectively the faces of a rational cone associated to any quiver without oriented cycles. An important example of such a cone is the Horn cone.
