Q-factorial Gorenstein toric Fano varieties X of dimension d with Picard number rho(X) correspond to simplicial reflexive d-polytopes with rho(X)+d vertices. Casagrande showed that any simplicial reflexive d-polytope has at most 3d…
We prove Fujita's spectrum conjecture on the discreteness of pseudo-effective thresholds for polarized varieties.
It is pretty well-known that toric Fano varieties of dimension k with terminal singularities correspond to convex lattice polytopes P in R^k of positive finite volume, such that intersection of P and Z^k consists of the point 0 and vertices…
We classify the d-dimensional simplicial, terminal, and reflexive polytopes with at least 3d-2 vertices. In particular, it turns out that these are all smooth Fano polytopes. This improves on previous results of Casagrande in 2006 and Oebro…
Let X be a complex, Gorenstein, Q-factorial, toric Fano variety. We prove two conjectures on the maximal Picard number of X in terms of its dimension and its pseudo-index, and characterize the boundary cases. Equivalently, we determine the…
A Gorenstein polytope of index r is a lattice polytope whose r-th dilate is a reflexive polytope. These objects are of interest in combinatorial commutative algebra and enumerative combinatorics, and play a crucial role in Batyrev's and…
We prove that the sum of the Picard ranks of a polar pair of Gorenstein toric Fano varieties of dimension $d\geq 3$ is at most the minimum of the number of facets and vertices of the corresponding pair of reflexive polytopes minus $(d-1)$.…
The codegree ${\rm codeg}(\mathcal{P})$ of a lattice polytope $\mathcal{P}$ is a fundamental invariant in discrete geometry. In the present paper, we investigate the codegree of the stable set polytope $\mathcal{P}_G$ associated with a…
This paper shows the polytopality of any finite type $\mathbf{g}$-vector fan, acyclic or not. In fact, for any finite Dynkin type $\Gamma$, we construct a universal associahedron $\mathsf{Asso}_{\mathrm{un}}(\Gamma)$ with the property that…
The Fine interior $F(P)$ of a $d$-dimensional lattice polytope $P \subset {\Bbb R}^d$ is the set of all points $y \in P$ having integral distance at least $1$ to any integral supporting hyperplane of $P$. We call a lattice polytope…
In hep-th/0111053, a complete simplicial fan was associated to an arbitrary finite root system. It was conjectured that this fan is the normal fan of a simple convex polytope (a generalized associahedron of the corresponding type). Here we…
Lattice polyhedra $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ with the same tail cone are said to be normally located if every lattice point in the Minkowski sum $Q_1+Q_2$ is the sum of lattice points from $Q_1$ and $Q_2$, respectively. We prove that if the normal fan…
We prove that if $\mathbb{F}$ is an algebraically closed field of zero characteristic which has infinite transcendence degree over $\mathbb{Q}$, then there exists a field automorphism $\varphi$ of ${\rm SL}_n(\mathbb{F})$ and ${\rm…
We show that the following classes of lattice polytopes have unimodular covers, in dimension three: the class of parallelepipeds, the class of centrally symmetric polytopes, and the class of Cayley sums $\text{Cay}(P,Q)$ where the normal…
In our previous work we conjectured - inspired by an algebro-geometric result of Fujita - that the height of an arithmetic Fano variety X of relative dimension $n$ is maximal when X is the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n_{\mathbb{Z}}$ over…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of an admissible partition of a simplicial polyhedral fan and define the category of a partitioned fan as a generalisation of the $\tau$-cluster morphism category of a finite-dimensional algebra. This…
Let P^n denote the n-dimensional projective space defined over the algebraic closure of a finite field F_q, let V contained P^n be a complete intersection defined over F_q of dimension r and singular locus of dimension at most s, and let…
We prove that every finitary polynomial endofunctor of a category $C$ has a final coalgebra if $C$ is locally Cartesian closed, has finite disjoint coproducts and a natural number object. More generally, we prove that the category of…
An affine tropical fan is called regular if it supports a reduced 0-dimensional complete intersection. For some cases the classification of regular fans is already complete. It was proved by Fink that tropical varieties of degree 1 are…
A horospherical variety is a normal algebraic variety where a reductive algebraic group acts with an open orbit which is a torus bundle over a flag variety. For example, toric varieties and flag varieties are horospherical. In this paper,…
