We describe the construction of a class of toric varieties as spectra of homogeneous prime ideals.

We show that, for a complete simplicial toric variety $X$, we can determine its homotopy $\KH$-theory entirely in terms of the torus pieces of open sets forming an open cover of $X$. We then construct conditions under which, given two…

We describe a method of computing equivariant and ordinary intersection cohomology of certain varieties with actions of algebraic tori, in terms of structure of the zero- and one-dimensional orbits. The class of varieties to which our…

Given a rational monomial map, we consider the question of finding a toric variety on which it is algebraically stable. We give conditions for when such variety does or does not exist. We also obtain several precise estimates of the degree…

We define equivariant Chern classes of a toric vector bundle over a proper toric scheme over a DVR. We provide a combinatorial description of them in terms of piecewise polynomial functions on the polyhedral complex associated to the toric…

We prove that a Poisson structure on a projective toric variety which is invariant by the torus action and whose symplectic leaves are the torus orbits is not exact. This is deduced from a geometric criterion for non-exactness of Poisson…

We study real ternary forms whose real rank equals the generic complex rank, and we characterize the semialgebraic set of sums of powers representations with that rank. Complete results are obtained for quadrics and cubics. For quintics we…

We consider linear systems on toric varieties of any dimension, with invariant base points, giving a characterization of special linear systems. We then make a new conjecture for linear systems on rational surfaces.

This note proves the existence of universal rational parametrizations. The description involves homogeneous coordinates on a toric variety coming from a lattice polytope. We first describe how smooth toric varieties lead to universal…

Any toric flip naturally induces an equivalence between the associated categories of equivariant reflexive sheaves, and we investigate how slope stability behaves through this functor. On one hand, for a fixed toric sheaf, and natural…

We give various examples of Q-factorial projective toric varieties such that the sum of the squared torus invariant prime divisors is positive. We also determine the generators for the cone of effective $2$-cycles on a toric variety of…

Based on the Reid-Shepherd-Barron-Tai criterion for canonical and terminal quotient singularities, we characterize canonicity and terminality of a toric variety in terms of its local class group actions. Specializing it to the Picard number…

Horospherical Schubert varieties are determined. It is shown that the stabilizer of an arbitrary point in a Schubert variety is a strongly solvable algebraic group. The connectedness of this stabilizer subgroup is discussed. Moreover, a new…

Levi subgroup actions on Schubert varieties are studied. In the case of partial flag varieties, the horospherical actions are determined. This leads to a characterization of the toroidal and horospherical partial flag varieties with Picard…

In this manuscript we study braid varieties, a class of affine algebraic varieties associated to positive braids. Several geometric constructions are presented, including certain torus actions on braid varieties and holomorphic symplectic…

We introduce a new family of invariants of real algebraic sets defined in terms of the topology of their complexifications and compute some of these invariants for spheres. This allows us to completely classify topological isomorphism…

Over a monoidal model category, under some mild assumptions, we equip the categories of colored PROPs and their algebras with projective model category structures. A Boardman-Vogt style homotopy invariance result about algebras over…

We give a combinatorial criterion for the tangent bundle on a smooth toric variety to be stable with respect to a given polarisation in terms of the corresponding lattice polytope. Furthermore, we show that for a smooth toric surface and a…
