Abstract The classical Rees construction (of common use in commutative algebra and Hodge theory) interpolates between filtrations, viewed as 𝔾 m {G₌} -equivariant vector bundles on the affine line, and their associated gradings. Various non-abelian versions have been proposed, where the multiplicative group 𝔾 m {G₌} is replaced by an arbitrary reductive group. Building on a construction due to P. O’Sullivan, we present a Galois correspondence between quasi-homogeneous spaces and certain monoidal categories, and apply it to monoidal categories of motives with concrete applications to algebraic cycles. In particular, we give a new proof and generalization of the Clozel–Deligne theorem about numerical equivalence on abelian varieties over finite fields.
