We prove that the Okounkov body of a big divisor with respect to a general flag on a smooth projective surface whose pseudo-effective cone is rational polyhedral decomposes as the Minkowski sum of finitely many simplices and line segments…
We prove that the existence of a finite Minkowski base for Okounkov bodies on a smooth projective variety with respect to an admissible flag implies rational polyhedrality of the global Okounkov body. As an application of this general…
We generalized the construction of deformations of affine toric varieties of K. Altmann and our previous construction of deformations of weak Fano toric varieties to the case of arbitrary toric varieties by introducing the notion of…
We compute Okounkov bodies of projective complexity-one T-varieties with respect to two types of invariant flags. In particular, we show that the latter are rational polytopes. Moreover, using results of Dave Anderson and Nathan Ilten, we…
Given a smooth Mori dream space $X$ we construct a model dominating all the small $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial modifications via tropicalization. This construction allows us to recover a Minkowski basis for the Newton-Okounkov bodies of divisors…
We first prove some basic properties of Okounkov bodies, and give a characterization of Nakayama and positive volume subvarieties of a pseudoeffective divisor in terms of Okounkov bodies. Next, we show that each valuative and limiting…
The purpose of this note is to give a generalization of the statement that the anticanonical class of a (smooth) projective toric variety is the sum of invariant prime divisors, corresponding to the rays in its fan (or facets in its…
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the close relation between Okounkov bodies and Zariski decompositions of pseudoeffective divisors on smooth projective surfaces. Firstly, we completely determine the limiting Okounkov bodies on…
We prove that on a Bott-Samelson variety $X$ every movable divisor is nef. This enables us to consider Zariski decompositions of effective divisors, which in turn yields a description of the Mori chamber decomposition of the effective cone.…
The Okounkov body is a construction which, to an effective divisor D on an n-dimensional algebraic variety X, associates a convex body in the n-dimensional Euclidean space R^n. It may be seen as a generalization of the moment polytope of an…
The operational Chow cohomology classes of a complete toric variety are identified with certain functions, called Minkowski weights, on the corresponding fan. The natural product of Chow cohomology classes makes the Minkowski weights into a…
We study the greatest common divisor problem for torus invariant blowing-up morphisms of nonsingular toric Fano varieties. Our main result applies the theory of Okounkov bodies together with an arithmetic form of Cartan's Second Main…
Given a polyhedral cone sigma with smooth two-dimensional faces and, moreover, a lattice point R in the dual cone of sigma, we describe the part of the versal deformation of the associated toric variety TV(sigma) that is built from the…
Toric orbifolds are a topological generalization of projective toric varieties associated to simplicial fans. We introduce some sufficient conditions on the combinatorial data associated to a toric orbifold to ensure the existence of an…
Following the historical track in pursuing $T$-equivariant flat toric degenerations of flag varieties and spherical varieties, we explain how powerful tools in algebraic geometry and representation theory, such as canonical bases,…
We introduce admissible Minkowski decomposition data (amd) for a 3-dimensional reflexive polytope P. This notion is defined purely in terms of the combinatorics of P. Denoting by X the Gorenstein toric Fano 3-fold whose fan is the spanning…
Given two tropical polynomials $f, g$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, we provide a characterization for the existence of a factorization $f= h \odot g$ and the construction of $h$. As a ramification of this result we obtain a parallel result for the…
Let \Delta be the Okounkov body of a divisor D on a projective variety X. We describe a geometric criterion for \Delta to be a lattice polytope, and show that in this situation X admits a flat degeneration to the corresponding toric…
Signed Minkowski decomposition is an expression of a polytope as a Minkowski sum and difference of smaller polytopes. Signed Minkowski decompositions of a polytope can be interpreted as factorizations of a max-plus (tropical) function. We…
We prove that the median hypersimplex $\Delta_{2k,k}$ is Minkowski indecomposable, i.e. it cannot be expressed as a non-trivial Minkowski sum $\Delta_{2k,k} = P+Q$, where $P\neq \lambda\Delta_{2k,k}\neq Q$. We obtain as a corollary that…
