Abstract. We generalize Roberts' counterexample to the fourteenth problem of Hilbert, and give a sufficient condition for certain invariant rings not to be finitely generated. It shows that there exist a lot of counterexamples of this type. We also determine the initial algebra of Roberts' counterexample for some monomial order.
