For a Lie group $G$ and a vector bundle $E$ we study those actions of the Lie group $TG$ on $E$ for which the action map $TG\times E \to E$ is a morphism of vector bundles, and call those \emph{affine actions}. We prove that the category…

In this paper we show that a normal affine toric variety X different from the algebraic torus is uniquely determined by its automorphism group in the category of affine irreducible, not necessarily normal, algebraic varieties if and only if…

Let T be a torus over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0, and consider a projective T-module P(V). We determine when a projective toric subvariety X of P(V) is self-dual, in terms of the configuration of weights of V.

Let $G$ be a group and let $X$ be a transitive $G$-space. We classify the subsets of $X$ with respect to a translation invariant ideal $\mathcal{J}$ in the Boolean algebra of all subsets of $X$, introduce and apply the relative…

We characterize the smooth toric varieties for which the Merkurjev spectral sequence, connecting equivariant and ordinary K-theory, degenerates. We find under which conditions on the support of the fan the $E^2$ terms of the spectral…

We define and study a certain relative tensor product of subfactors over a modular tensor category. This gives a relative tensor product of two completely rational heterotic full local conformal nets with trivial superselection structures…

The affine $su(3)$ modular invariant partition functions in 2d RCFT are associated with a set of generalized Coxeter graphs. These partition functions fall into two classes, the block-diagonal (Type I) and the non block-diagonal (Type II)…

We provide a Hilbert-Mumford Criterion for actions of reductive groups $G$ on $Q$-factorial complex varieties. The result allows to construct open subsets admitting a good quotient by $G$ from certain maximal open subsets admitting a good…

We study the closure of a complex subtorus in a toric manifold. If the closure of the complex subtorus is a smooth complex submanifold in the toric manifold, then the subtorus action on such submanifold is Hamiltonian. In this case, we may…

In this paper, the concept of toric difference varieties is defined and four equivalent descriptions for toric difference varieties are presented in terms of difference rational parametrization, difference coordinate rings, toric difference…

Let $\overline G$ be the wonderful compactification of a simple affine algebraic group $G$ defined over $\mathbb C$ such that its center is trivial and $G\not= {\rm PSL}(2,\mathbb{C})$. Take a maximal torus $T \subset G$, and denote by…

In 1998, Goresky, Kottwitz, and MacPherson showed that for certain projective varieties X equipped with an algebraic action of a complex torus T, the equivariant cohomology ring H_T(X) can be described by combinatorial data obtained from…

Let X be a smooth toric variety stratified by the torus action. This paper is a presentation of a description of the category Perv_X of perverse sheaves on X relatively to the fixed stratification. We define a category of representations of…

Let $X$ be an affine toric variety and let $D(X)$ be the set of weights of all root subgroups. It is known that $D(X)$ together with its embedding into the character group determines $X$ as a toric variety. In this article we prove that $X$…

We associate a bivariant theory to any suitable oriented Borel-Moore homology theory on the category of algebraic schemes or the category of algebraic G-schemes. Applying this to the theory of algebraic cobordism yields operational…

We give a combinatorial classification of torus equivariant vector bundles on a (normal) projective T-variety of complexity-one. This extends the classification of equivariant line bundles on complexity-one T-varieties by Petersen-S\"uss on…

Splitting invariants describe how a plane curve "splits" by the pull-back under a Galois cover over the projective plane whose branch locus contains no component of the plane curve. They enable us to distinguish the embedded topology of…

We propose a new stratification of the reduced subschemes of Rapoport-Zink spaces and of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties that highlights the relation between the geometry of these spaces and the action of the associated automorphism group.…

We define and investigate algebraic torus actions on quiver Grassmannians for nilpotent representations of the equioriented cycle. Examples of such varieties are type $\tt A$ flag varieties, their linear degenerations, finite dimensional…

Toric geometry provides a bridge between algebraic geometry and combinatorics of fans and polytopes. For each polarized toric variety (X,L) we have associated a polytope P. In this thesis we use this correspondence to study birational…
