This analysis shows that extensions of unirational groups remain unirational over imperfect fields, suggesting insights into group filtrations.
We undertake a study of extensions of unirational algebraic groups. We prove that extensions of unirational groups are also unirational over fields of degree of imperfection $1$, but that this fails over every field of higher degree of imperfection, answering a question of Achet. We also initiate a study of those groups which admit filtrations with unirational graded pieces, and show that one may deduce unirationality of unipotent groups from unirationality of certain quotients.
