We present some results on projective toric varieties which are relevant in Diophantine geometry. We interpret and study several invariants attached to these varieties in geometrical and combinatorial terms. We also give a B\'ezout theorem…
Let $X$ be a normal and geometrically integral projective variety over a global field $K$ and let $\overline{D}$ be an adelic Cartier divisor on $X$. We prove a conjecture of Chen, showing that the essential minimum…
We establish a formula for the height zeta function for integral points on a class of projective toric varieties. Our method builds on the harmonic analysis approach of Batyrev--Tschinkel for rational points and is applicable even when the…
The purpose of this paper is to compute the minimal fibering degree of an arbitrary projective toric variety. We prove that it equals the lattice width of the associated polytope. This gives a complete answer to a question asked in a recent…
Given a projective variety X defined over a finite field, the zeta function of divisors attempts to count all irreducible, codimension one subvarieties of X, each measured by their projective degree. When the dimension of X is greater than…
We introduce and study the successive minima of line bundles on proper algebraic varieties. The first (resp. last) minima are the width (resp. Seshadri constant) of the line bundle at very general points. The volume of the line bundle is…
We present bounds for the degree and the height of the polynomials arising in some central problems in effective algebraic geometry including the implicitation of rational maps and the effective Nullstellensatz over a variety. Our treatment…
Given an arithmetic surface and a positive hermitian line bundle over it, we bound the successive minima of the lattice of global sections of this line bundle. Our method combines a result of C.Voisin on secant varieties of projective…
We define a quasi--projective reduction of a complex algebraic variety $X$ to be a regular map from $X$ to a quasi--projective variety that is universal with respect to regular maps from $X$ to quasi--projective varieties. A toric…
In this paper, we develop a toric analog of the theory of adelic divisors on quasi-projective arithmetic varieties introduced by Yuan and Zhang, and extend the convex-analytic descriptions of the Arakelov geometry of projective toric…
Let $X_{P}$ be the projective toric surface associated to a lattice polytope $P$. If the number of lattice points lying on the boundary of $P$ is at least $4$, it is known that $X_{P}$ is embeddable into a suitable projective space as zero…
Let $X_P$ be a smooth projective toric variety of dimension $n$ embedded in $\PP^r$ using all of the lattice points of the polytope $P$. We compute the dimension and degree of the secant variety $\Sec X_P$. We also give explicit formulas in…
We study the arithmetic properties of projective varieties of almost minimal degree, that is of non-degenerate irreducible projective varieties whose degree exceeds the codimension by precisely 2. We notably show, that such a variety $X…
We combine the split torsor method and the hyperbola method for toric varieties to count rational points and Campana points of bounded height on certain subvarieties of toric varieties.
Minimal model conjecture for a proper variety $X$ is that if $\kappa(X)\geq 0$, then $X$ has a minimal model with the abundance and if $\kappa =-\infty$, then $X$ is birationally equivalent to a variety $Y$ which has a fibration $Y \to Z$…
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…
The main purpose of this notes is to supplement the paper reid, which treated Minimal Model Program (also called Mori's Program) on toric varieties. We calculate lengths of negative extremal rays of toric varieties. As an application, we…
Let $I_M$ and $I_N$ be defining ideals of toric varieties such that $I_M$ is a projection of $I_N$, i.e. $I_N \subseteq I_M$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the equality $I_M=rad(I_N+(f_1,...,f_s))$, where $f_1,...,f_s$…
By analogy with algebraic geometry, we define a category of non-linear sheaves (quasi-coherent homotopy-sheaves of topological spaces) on projective toric varieties and prove a splitting result for its algebraic K-theory, generalising…
