Rationality Problem of Two-Dimensional Quasi-Monomial Group Actions

The rationality problem of two-dimensional purely quasi-monomial actions was solved completely by (Hoshi, Kang and Kitayama, J. Algebra 403, 363-400, 2014). As a generalization, we solve the rationality problem of two-dimensional quasi-monomial actions under the condition that the actions are defined within the base field. In order to prove the theorem, we give a brief review of the Severi-Brauer variety with some examples and rationality results. We also use a rationality criterion for conic bundles of \(\mathbb {P}^1\) ${\mathbb{P}}^1$ over non-closed fields.
