The anticanonical complex generalizes the Fano polytope from toric geometry and has been used to study Fano varieties with torus action so far. We work out the case of complete intersections in toric varieties defined by non-degenerate…
We study certain toric Gorenstein varieties with isolated singularities which are the quotient spaces of generic unimodular representations by the one-dimensional torus, or by the product of the one-dimensional torus with a finite abelian…
We present two algorithms determining all the complete and simplicial fans admitting a fixed non-degenerate set of vectors $V$ as generators of their 1-skeleton. The interplay of the two algorithms allows us to discerning if the associated…
We consider rational projective homogeneous varieties over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, namely quotients of a semi-simple group by a possibly non-reduced parabolic subgroup. We determine the group scheme…
We show that if the automorphism group of a projective variety is torsion, then it is finite. Motivated by Lang's conjecture on rational points of hyperbolic varieties, we use this to prove that a projective variety with only finitely many…
In this paper we study the geometry of toric degeneration of a Bott-Samelson-Demazure-Hansen (BSDH) variety. We give some applications to BSDH varieties. Precisely, we classify Fano, weak Fano and log Fano BSDH varieties and their toric…
We reprove and generalize the result that the intersection cohomology groups of a toric variety with coefficient in a nontrivial rank one local system vanish. We prove a similar vanishing result for a certain class of varieties on which a…
We study reversibility and strong reversibility of affine automorphisms of the two-torus, written as $f_{A,\bar{a}}(\bar{x})=A\bar{x}+\bar{a} \ (\mathrm{mod}\ \mathbb{Z}^2)$. We derive explicit criteria for the reversibility of such maps in…
Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. For a reduced word $\bf i$ of the longest element in the Weyl group of $G$ and a dominant integral weight $\lambda$, one can construct the string polytope $\Delta_{\bf i}(\lambda)$,…
It is known that the automorphism group of a K-polystable Fano manifold is reductive. Codogni and Dervan construct a canonical filtration of the section ring, called Loewy filtration, and conjecture that the Loewy filtration destabilizes…
We prove optimal transport stability (in the sense of Andreasson and the second author) for reflexive Weyl polytopes: reflexive polytopes which are convex hulls of an orbit of a Weyl group. When the reflexive Weyl polytope is Delzant, it…
Let X be a normal projective Q-Gorenstein variety with at worst log-terminal singularities. We prove a formula expressing the total stringy Chern class of a generic complete intersection in X via the total stringy Chern class of X. This…
We study toric degenerations arising from Gr\"obner degenerations or the tropicalization of partial flag varieties. We produce a new family of toric degenerations of partial flag varieties whose combinatorics are governed by matching fields…
In this paper, we prove that a Gorenstein toric Fano variety $(X, -K_{X})$ is asymptotically Chow semistable then it is Ding polystable with respect to toric test configurations (Theorem 1.3). This extends the known result obtained by…
An infinite type toric variety is a normal toric variety given by a fan with infinitely many cones. We construct examples in this paper coming from representation theory of loop groups. The fans that appear are cones on Voronoi tilings on a…
We prove that the mapping torus group $\FN \rtimes_{\alpha} \Z$ of any automorphism $\alpha$ of a free group $\FN$ of finite rank $n \geq 2$ is weakly hyperbolic relative to the canonical (up to conjugation) family $\mathcal H(\alpha)$ of…
We define fully irreducible automorphisms of generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups in analogy with fully irreducible automorphisms of free groups. We first obtain a characterization of fully irreducible automorphisms analogous to a condition…
We consider the notions of Groebner fan and Newton non-degeneracy for an ideal on a toric variety, extending the two existing notions for ideals on affine spaces. We prove, without assumptions on the characteristic of the base fields, that…
We investigate the concept of definable, or inner, automorphism in the logical setting of partial Horn theories. The central technical result extends a syntactical characterization of the group of such automorphisms (called the covariant…
We prove that for every complex classical group $G$ the string polytope associated to a special reduced decomposition and any dominant integral weight $\lambda$ will be a lattice polytope if and only if the highest weight representation of…
