The GIT-equivalence for G-line bundles

Let $X$ be a projective variety with an action of a reductive group $G$. Each ample $G$-line bundle $L$ on $X$ defines an open subset $X^{\rm ss}(L)$ of semi-stable points. Following Dolgachev and Hu, define a GIT-class as the set of algebraic equivalence classes of $L'$s with fixed $X^{\rm ss}(L)$. We show that the GIT-classes are the relative interiors of rational polyhedral convex cones, which form a fan in the $G$-ample cone. We also study the corresponding variations of quotients $X^{\rm ss}(L)//G$. This sharpens results of Thaddeus and Dolgachev-Hu.
