Abstract

Let V be a normal affine surface which admits \({\mathbb{C}^*}\) - and \({\mathbb{C}_+}\) -actions. Such surfaces were classified e.g., in: Flenner and Zaidenberg (Osaka J Math 40:981–1009, 2003; 42:931–974), see also the references therein. In this note we show that in many cases V can be embedded as a principal Zariski open subset into a hypersurface of a weighted projective space. In particular, we recover a result of D. Daigle and P. Russell, see Theorem A in: Daigle and Russell (Can J Math 56:1145–1189, 2004)
