Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible complex algebraic variety of dimension $n$ and $L$ a very ample line bundle on $X$. Given a toric degeneration of $(X,L)$ satisfying some natural technical hypotheses, we construct a deformation $\{J_s\}$ of…
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…
Let X be a smooth complex projective variety of dimension n equipped with a very ample Hermitian line bundle L. In the first part of the paper, we show that if there exists a toric degeneration of X satisfying some natural hypotheses (which…
The main result of this note is that the toric degenerations of flag varieties associated to string polytopes and certain Bott-Samelson resolutions of flag varieties fit into a commutative diagram which gives a resolution of singularities…
A toric degeneration of an irreducible variety is a flat degeneration to an irreducible toric variety. In the case of a flag variety, its toric degeneration with desirable properties induces degenerations of Richardson varieties to unions…
The Hodge algebra structures on the homogeneous coordinate rings of Grassmann varieties provide semi-toric degenerations of these varieties. In this paper we construct these semi-toric degenerations using quasi-valuations and triangulations…
We study toric degenerations arising from Gr\"obner degenerations or the tropicalization of partial flag varieties. We produce a new family of toric degenerations of partial flag varieties whose combinatorics are governed by matching fields…
Let $Y$ be a (partial) minimal model of a scheme $V$ with a cluster structure. Under natural assumptions, for every choice of seed we associate a Newton--Okounkov body to every divisor on $Y$ supported on $Y \setminus V$ and show that these…
We introduce and develop the theory of Newton nondegenerate local Weil divisors $(X,0)$ in toric affine varieties. We characterize in terms of the toric combinatorics of the Newton diagram different properties of such singular germs:…
We construct an explicit, embedded degeneration of the general torus orbit closure in the maximal orthogonal Grassmannian OG(n,2n+1) into a union of Richardson varieties. In particular, we deduce a formula for the cohomology class of the…
The main theme of this paper is to use toric degeneration to produce distinct homogeneous quasimorphisms on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms. We focus on the (complex $n$-dimensional) quadric hypersurface and the del Pezzo surfaces,…
Generalizing the notion of Newton polytope, we define the Newton-Okounkov body, respectively, for semigroups of integral points, graded algebras, and linear series on varieties. We prove that any semigroup in the lattice Z^n is…
Assume that the valuation semigroup $\Gamma(\lambda)$ of an arbitrary partial flag variety corresponding to the line bundle $\mathcal L_\lambda$ constructed via a full-rank valuation is finitely generated and saturated. We use Ehrhart…
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,…
In this thesis we study toric degenerations of projective varieties. We compare different constructions to understand how and why they are related as s first step towards developing a global framework. In focus are toric degenerations…
We study an analytically irreducible algebroid germ (X, 0) of complex singularity by considering the filtrations of its analytic algebra, and their associated graded rings, induced by the divisorial valuations associated to the irreducible…
Let Delta be an integral convex polytope containing the origin of dimension n in the n-dim real space and it is simplicial at all origin-less facets. Let A(Delta) be the space of all Laurent polynomials f parametered by its coefficients…
We study the shapes of all Newton-Okounkov bodies $\Delta_{v}(D)$ of a given big divisor $D$ on a surface $S$ with respect to all rank 2 valuations $v$ of $K(S)$. We obtain upper bounds for, and in many cases we determine exactly, the…
In this survey I summarize the constructions of toric degenerations obtained from valuations and Gr\"obner theory and describe in which sense they are equivalent. I show how adapted bases can be used to generalize the classical Newton…
