K-rings of smooth toric varieties via piecewise-exponential functions

Algebraic Geometry 2025-07-21 v1

Abstract

We describe an explicit presentation of the ring of integral piecewise-exponential functions on a unimodular fan as a quotient of the Stanley-Reisner ring of the fan. This gives rise to a presentation of K-rings of smooth toric varieties that is parallel to the well-known presentation of integral Chow rings as quotients of Stanley-Reisner rings.
