Abstract

We classify generically transitive actions of semi-direct products Ga ⋊ Gm on ℙ2. Motivated by the program to study the distribution of rational points on del Pezzo surfaces (Manin's conjecture), we determine all (possibly singular) del Pezzo surfaces that are equivariant compactifications of homogeneous spaces for semi-direct products Ga ⋊ Gm.
