Semi-Stable Degeneration of Toric Varieties and Their Hypersurfaces

Algebraic Geometry 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We provide a construction of examples of semistable degeneration via toric geometry. The applications include a higher dimensional generalization of classical degeneration of K3 surface into 4 rational components, an algebraic geometric version of decomposing K3 as the fiber sum of two E(1)'s as well as it's higher dimensional generalizations, and many other new examples.
