Deformations of an affine Gorenstein toric pair

Algebraic Geometry 2025-09-16 v3

Abstract

We consider deformations of a pair (X,X)(X,\partial X), where XX is an affine toric Gorenstein variety and X\partial X is its boundary. We compute the tangent and obstruction space for the corresponding deformation functor and for an admissible lattice degree mm we construct the miniversal deformation of (X,X)(X,\partial X) in degrees km-km, for all kNk\in \mathbb{N}. This in particular generalizes Altmann's construction of the miniversal deformation of an isolated Gorenstein toric singularity to an arbitrary non-isolated Gorenstein toric singularity. Moreover, we show that the irreducible components of the reduced miniversal deformation are in one to one correspondence with maximal Minkowski decompositions of the polytope P(m=1)P\cap (m=1), where PP is the lattice polytope defining XX.
