We introduce toric $b$-divisors on complete smooth toric varieties and a notion of integrability of such divisors. We show that under some positivity assumptions toric $b$-divisors are integrable and that their degree is given as the volume…
We study the secant line variety of the Segre product of projective spaces using special cumulant coordinates adapted for secant varieties. We show that the secant variety is covered by open normal toric varieties. We prove that in cumulant…
Dropping separatedness in the definition of a toric variety, one obtains the more general notion of a toric prevariety. Toric prevarieties occur as ambient spaces in algebraic geometry and moreover they appear naturally as intermediate…
We show that a sufficiently general hypersurface of degree $d$ in $n$-dimensional projective space admits a toric Gr\"obner degeneration if and only if $d\leq 2n-1$.
In 1973 V.L.Popov classified affine SL(2)-embeddings. He proved that a locally transitive SL(2)-action on a normal affine three-dimensional variety X is uniquely determined by a pair (p/q, r), where 0<p/q<=1 is an uncancelled fraction and r…
We compute the Cox ring of an embedded variety $X \subseteq Z$ within a Mori dream space, under the assumption that the pullback map induces an isomorphism at the level of divisor class groups. We show that the Cox ring of $X$ is the…
A seminal result in the theory of toric varieties, due to Knudsen, Mumford and Waterman (1973), asserts that for every lattice polytope $P$ there is a positive integer $k$ such that the dilated polytope $kP$ has a unimodular triangulation.…
Let $(X,x_0)$ be any one--pointed compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g$, with $g\geq 3$. Fix two mutually coprime integers $r>1$ and $d$. Let ${\mathcal M}_X$ denote the moduli space parametrizing all logarithmic…
Let p:C-->Y be a covering of smooth, projective curves which is a composition of \pi:C-->C' of degree 2 and g:C'-->Y of degree n. Let f:X-->Y be the covering of degree 2^n, where the curve X parametrizes the liftings in C^{(n)} of the…
We study higher order determinantal varieties obtained by considering generic $m\times n$ ($m \le n$) matrices over rings of the form $F[t]/(t^k)$, and for some fixed $r$, setting the coefficients of powers of $t$ of all $r \times r$ minors…
Let X and Y be K-equivalent toric Deligne-Mumford stacks related by a single toric wall-crossing. We prove the Crepant Transformation Conjecture in this case, fully-equivariantly and in genus zero. That is, we show that the equivariant…
Let f(x,y)=0 be an equation of plane analytic curve defined in the neighborhood of the origin and let $\pi:M\to(\Cn^2,0)$ be a local toric modification. We give a formula which connects a number of double points \delta_0(f)$ with a sum…
The tropicalization of an algebraic variety X is a combinatorial shadow of X, which is sensitive to a closed embedding of X into a toric variety. Given a good embedding, the tropicalization can provide a lot of information about X. We…
An equivariant linear system on a toric variety is a linear system invariant under the torus action. We study the number of irreducible components of the complete intersection of general divisors from a fixed collection of equivariant…
This paper reexamines univariate reduction from a toric geometric point of view. We begin by constructing a binomial variant of the $u$-resultant and then retailor the generalized characteristic polynomial to fully exploit sparsity in the…
We classify 1-dimensional connected dually flat manifolds $M$ that are toric in the sense of [Molitor, arXiv:2109.04839], and show that the corresponding torifications are complex space forms. Special emphasis is put on the case where M is…
We present an algebraic study of the projection of plane curves and twisted cubics in space onto multiple images of pinhole cameras. The Zariski closure of the image of the projection of conics is a conic multiview varieties. Extending…
A point $p\in\mathbb{P}^N$ of a projective space is $h$-identifiable, with respect to a variety $X\subset\mathbb{P}^N$, if it can be written as linear combination of $h$ elements of $X$ in a unique way. Identifiability is implied by…
Given n general points p_1, p_2,..., p_n \in P^r, it is natural to ask whether there is a curve of given degree d and genus g passing through them; by counting dimensions a natural conjecture is that such a curve exists if and only if \[n…
In this paper we show that quotients of smooth projective toric varieties by $\mu_p$ in positive characteristics $p$ are toric varieties.
