In this expository note we discuss a class of graded algebras named Cox rings, which are naturally associated to algebraic varieties generalizing the homogeneous coordinate rings of projective spaces. Whenever the Cox ring is finitely…

We compute the Cox ring of an embedded variety $X \subseteq Z$ within a Mori dream space, under the assumption that the pullback map induces an isomorphism at the level of divisor class groups. We show that the Cox ring of $X$ is the…

The Cox ring of a so-called Mori Dream Space (MDS) is finitely generated and it is graded over the divisor class group. Hence the spectrum of the Cox ring comes with an action of an algebraic torus whose GIT quotient is the variety in…

We prove that the Cox ring of the projectivization P(E) of a rank two toric vector bundle E, over a toric variety X, is a finitely generated k-algebra. As a consequence, P(E) is a Mori dream space if the toric variety X is projective and…

We give a proper definition of the multiplicative structure of the following rings: the Cox ring of invertible sheaves on a general algebraic stack; and the Cox ring of rank one reflexive sheaves on a normal and excellent algebraic stack.…

We study a class of rational surfaces (considered in [Campillo, Piltant and Reguera, 2005]) associated to curves with one place at infinity and explicitly describe generators of the Cox ring and global sections of line bundles on these…

Any rational map between affine spaces, projective spaces or toric varieties can be described in terms of their affine, homogeneous, or Cox coordinates. We show an analogous statement in the setting of Mori Dream Spaces. More precisely (in…

We present an algorithm to compute the automorphism group of a Mori dream space. As an example calculation, we determine the automorphism groups of singular cubic surfaces with general parameters. The strategy is to study graded…

Mori dream spaces form a large example class of algebraic varieties, comprising the well known toric varieties. We provide a first software package for the explicit treatment of Mori dream spaces and demonstrate its use by presenting basic…

We first extend previous results of the author with T. Wedhorn and W. Goldring regarding the existence of $\mu$-ordinary Hasse invariants for Hodge-type Shimura varieties to other automorphic line bundles. We also determine exactly which…

We consider torus actions on Mori dream spaces and ask whether the associated Chow quotient is again a Mori dream space and, if so, what does its Cox ring look like. We provide general tools for the study of these problems and give…

We investigate Cox rings of symplectic resolutions of quotients of $\mathbb{C}^{2n}$ by finite symplectic group actions. We propose a finite generating set of the Cox ring of a symplectic resolution and prove that under a condition…

We highlight a relation between the existence of Sarkisov links and the finite generation of (certain) Cox rings. We introduce explicit methods to use this relation in order to prove birational rigidity statements. To illustrate, we…

The main goal of this paper is to study varieties with the best possible Mori theoretic properties (measured by the existence of a certain decomposition of the cone of effective divisors). We call such a variety a Mori Dream Space. There…

We survey the construction of the Cox ring of an algebraic variety X and study the birational geometry of X when its Cox ring is finitely generated.

We study the Cox rings of smooth anticanonical Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in smooth toric Fano varieties. Using the combinatorics of primitive pairs of the ambient Fano polytope and the description of Cox rings of embedded varieties via…

We prove that a GIT chamber quotient of an affine variety $X=Spec(A)$ by a reductive group $G$, where $A$ is an almost factorial domain, is a Mori dream space if it is projective, regardless of the codimension of the unstable locus. This…

Given a morphism $F : X \rightarrow Y$ from a Mori Dream Space $X$ to a smooth Mori Dream Space $Y$ and quasicoherent sheaves $\mathcal{F}$ on $X$ and $\mathcal{G}$ on $Y$ , we describe the inverse image of $\mathcal{G}$ by $F$ and the…

We prove that good quotients of algebraic varieties with 1-rational singularities also have 1-rational singularities. This refines a result of Boutot on rational singularities of good quotients.

We consider actions of reductive groups on a varieties with finitely generated Cox ring, e.g., the classical case of a diagonal action on a product of projective spaces. Given such an action, we construct via combinatorial data in the Cox…
