A Vanishing Result for Toric Varieties Associated with Root Systems

Representation Theory 2007-11-01 v1 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

Consider a root system RR and the corresponding toric variety VRV_R whose fan is the Weyl fan and whose lattice of characters is given by the root lattice for RR. We prove the vanishing of the higher cohomology groups for certain line bundles on VRV_R by proving a purely combinatorial result for root systems. These results are related to a converse to Mazur's Inequality for (simply-connected) split reductive groups.
