Abstract

We classify exactly when the toric algebras \C[S\tree(\br)]\C[S_{\tree}(\br)] are Gorenstein. These algebras arise as toric deformations of algebras of invariants of the Cox-Nagata ring of the blow-up of n1n-1 points on Pn3\mathbb{P}^{n-3}, or equivalently algebras of the ring of global sections for the Pl\"ucker embedding of weight varieties of the Grassmanian Gr2(\Cn)Gr_2(\C^n), and algebras of global sections for embeddings of moduli of weighted points on P1\mathbb{P}^1. As a corollary, we find exactly when these families of rings are Gorenstein as well.
