The Picard group of a G-variety
(joint work with Hanspeter Kraft and Thierry Vust)

Let G be connected linear algebraic group acting on a variety X. In this note, the group of G-linearized line bundles on X is studied. For once, this is needed for one of the proofs of Sumihiro's Theorem. On the other hand, it has interesting applications to the Picard group of the categorical quotient X//G, in case X is affine.
