Effective and Big Divisors on a Projective Symmetric Variety

Abstract

We describe the effective and the big cones of a projective symmetric variety. Moreover, we give a necessary and sufficient combinatorial criterion for the bigness of a nef divisor on a projective symmetric variety. When the variety is toroidal and the divisor is GG-stable, such criterion has an explicit geometric interpretation. Finally, we describe the spherical closure of a symmetric subgroup.

16 pages. We have added an explict description of the big cone as an union of cones whose closure is simplicial
