Toric subvarieties of projective space are classified up to projective automorphisms.
In the present work we give a description a computer algebra algorithm of construction of a toric variety given its fan. The algorithm provides us as well with a construction of an integral representation in $\mathbb{C}^d$, associated with…
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…
In this paper, we obtain a complete classification of smooth toric Fano varieties equipped with extremal contractions which contract divisors to curves for any dimension. As an application, we obtain a complete classification of smooth…
We apply the combinatorial theory of spherical varieties to characterize the momentum polytopes of polarized projective spherical varieties. This enables us to derive a classification of these varieties, without specifying the open orbit,…
We study quotients of multi-graded bundles, including double vector bundles. Among other things, we show that any such quotient fits into a tower of affine bundles. Applications of the theory include a construction of normal bundles for…
The purpose of the article is to study a foliation associated to a lattice-equivariant harmonic map of small rank from a complex ball to another. The result is related to rigidity of some complex ball quotients.
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…
Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT) produces quotients of algebraic varieties by reductive groups. If the variety is projective, this quotient depends on a choice of polarisation; by work of Dolgachev-Hu and Thaddeus, it is known that two…
We show that Fano lattice polygons define a class of balanced quivers with interesting properties. The combinatorics of these quivers is related to singularities of the underlying toric Fano surface. This allows us to show that every Fano…
We provide a algebro-geometric combinatorial description of geometrically integral geometrically normal varieties endowed with an effective action of an algebraic torus over arbitrary fields. This description is achieved in terms of…
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…
Recent advances in computational techniques for $K$-theory allow us to describe the $K$-theory of toric varieties in terms of the $K$-theory of fields and simple cohomological data.
We give a simple combinatorial proof of the toric version of Mori's theorem that the only $n$-dimensional smooth projective varieties with ample tangent bundle are the projective spaces $\mathbb{P}^n$.
Polytropes are both ordinary and tropical polytopes. We show that tropical types of polytropes in $\mathbb{TP}^{n-1}$ are in bijection with cones of a certain Gr\"{o}bner fan $\mathcal{GF}_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n^2 - n}$ restricted to a small…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of "extension" of a toric variety and study its fundamental properties. This gives rise to infinitely many toric varieties with a special property, such as being set theoretic complete intersection or…
We establish a correspondence between simplicial fans, not necessarily rational, and certain foliated compact complex manifolds called LVMB-manifolds. In the rational case, Meersseman and Verjovsky have shown that the leaf space is the…
Hypertoric varieties are hyperk\"ahler analogues of toric varieties, and are constructed as abelian hyperk\"ahler quotients of a quaternionic affine space. Just as symplectic toric orbifolds are determined by labelled polytopes, orbifold…
From a finite set in a lattice, we can define a toric variety embedded in a projective space. In this paper, we give a combinatorial description of the dual defect of the toric variety using the structure of the finite set as a Cayley sum…
We apply the theory of Seshadri stratifications to embedded toric varieties $X_P\subseteq \mathbb P(V)$ associated with a normal lattice polytope $P$. The approach presented here is purely combinatorial and completely independent of…
