Abstract

Let X be a homogeneous for a connected reductive group G. Luna and Vust have classified all equivariant open embeddings of X into a larger normal G-variety. This paper contains a survey of this result together with a full proof valid in any characteristic. Moreover, many other results relating to spherical embeddings are mentioned and most of them proved.
