Abstract
Let $X$ be an affine algebraic variety endowed with an action of complexity one of an algebraic torus $\mathbb T$. It is well known that homogeneous locally nilpotent derivations on the algebra of regular functions $\mathbb K[X]$ can be described in terms of proper polyhedral divisors corresponding to the $\mathbb T$-variety $X$. We prove that homogeneous locally nilpotent derivations commute if and only if a certain combinatorial criterion holds. These results are used to describe actions of unipotent groups of dimension two on affine $\mathbb T$-varieties.Bibliography: 10 titles.
