Cellular free resolutions for normalizations of toric ideals

Commutative Algebra 2025-12-22 v1 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

For any toric ideal II in a polynomial ring SS, we provide a combinatorial description of a free resolution of the integral closure of the SS-module S/IS/I. These new complexes arise from an extension of Bayer--Sturmfels' theory of cellular free resolutions. As applications, we unify several constructions for a resolution of the diagonal embedding of a toric variety, and compare the locally free resolutions for toric subvarieties introduced by Hanlon--Hicks--Lazarev and Brown--Erman.
