In this note, we work out a simple inductive proof showing that every polyhedral cone K is the conic hull of a finite set X of vectors. The base cases of the induction are linear subspaces and linear halfspaces of linear subspaces. The…

The notion of higher order dual varieties of a projective variety is a natural generalization of the classical notion of projective duality, introduced by Piene in 1983. In this paper we study higher order dual varieties of projective toric…

In this paper, using Klyachko's classification theorem we study positivity and semi-stability of toric vector bundles on a class of nonsingular projective toric varieties, known as Bott towers. In particular, we give a criterion of $s$-jet…

We explain how complexity of rational points on projective varieties can be interpreted via the theories of Chow forms and Okounkov bodies. Precisely, we study discrete measures on filtered linear series and build on work of Boucksom and…

The space of torus translations and degenerations of a projective toric variety forms a toric variety associated to the secondary fan of the integer points in the polytope corresponding to the toric variety. This is used to identify a…

Givental has defined a Lagrangian cone in a symplectic vector space which encodes all genus-zero Gromov-Witten invariants of a smooth projective variety X. Let Y be the subvariety in X given by the zero locus of a regular section of a…

Any integral convex polytope $P$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$ provides a $N$-dimensional toric variety $X_P$ and an ample divisor $D_P$ on this variety. This paper gives an explicit construction of the algebraic geometric error-correcting code on…

We study the orientability of vector bundles with respect to a family of cohomology theories called $\mathrm{EO}$-theories. The $\mathrm{EO}$-theories are higher height analogues of real $\mathrm{K}$-theory $\mathrm{KO}$. For each…

A general conjecture is stated on the cone of automorphic vector bundles admitting nonzero global sections on schemes endowed with a smooth, surjective morphism to a stack of $G$-zips of connected-Hodge-type; such schemes should include all…

We initiate a combinatorial study of Newton-Okounkov functions on toric varieties with an eye on the rationality of asymptotic invariants of line bundles. In the course of our efforts we identify a combinatorial condition which ensures a…

We prove that the multiplication of sections of globally generated line bundles on a model wonderful variety M of simply connected type is always surjective. This follows by a general argument which works for every wonderful variety and…

This paper proves the volume of the arithmetic Okounkov body, constructed from a hermitian line bundle on an arithmetic variety by the author in a previous paper, is equal to the the volume of the hermitian line bundle up to a simple…

Kaneyama and Klyachko have shown that any torus equivariant vector bundle of rank $r$ over $\mathbb{CP}^n$ splits if $r < n$. In particular, any such bundle is not slope stable. In contrast, we provide explicit examples of stable…

For a finite dimensional vector space G we define the k-th generic syzygy scheme Gensyz_k(G) by explicit equations. We show that the syzygy scheme Syz(f) of any syzygy in the linear strand of a projective variety X which is cut out by…

For a given convex body K in $R^d$, a random polytope $K^{(n)}$ is defined (essentially) as the intersection of $n$ independent closed halfspaces containing $K$ and having an isotropic and (in a specified sense) uniform distribution. We…

The Cox ring provides a coordinate system on a toric variety analogous to the homogeneous coordinate ring of projective space. Rational maps between projective spaces are described using polynomials in the coordinate ring, and we generalise…
