A well known construction carries this out via a one-parameter subgroup of a $\GL_{n+1}$ which can then be viewed as a curve on the corresponding Hilbert scheme. Galligo \cite{galligo} proved that if $I$ is in generic coordinates, and if $w$ induces a monomial order up to a large enough degree, then $\init_w(I)$ is fixed by the action of the Borel subgroup of upper-triangular matrices. We prove that the direction the path approaches this Borel-fixed point on the Hilbert scheme is also Borel-fixed.22 pagesCommutative AlgebraAlgebraic Geometry13P10; 14Q99On an extension of Galligo's theorem concerning the Borel-fixed points on the Hilbert schemetext
