Lemma 2.1
Suppose $V\to W$ is a $G$-equivariant morphism of smooth projective $G$-varieties, such that the induced homomorphism is injective (resp., an isomorphism). Then $\mathop{\mathrm{Pic}}\nolimits(W,G)\to \mathop{\mathrm{Pic}}\nolimits(V,G)$ is injective (resp., an isomorphism), and $\mathrm{Am}(W,G)$ is contained in (resp., is equal to) $\mathrm{Am}(V,G)$.
