Multi-fan is an analogous notion of fan. As a fan is associated to a toric variety a multi-fan is associated to a torus orbifold. Orbifold elliptic class and orbifold elliptic genus are defined for a triple of a multi-fan, a set of…
The rigidity theorem of Witten-Bott-Taubes-Hirzebruch tells us that, if the circle group acts on a closed almost complex (or more generally unitary) manifold whose first Chern class is divisible by a positive integer N greater than 1, then…
Generalizing the passage from a fan to a toric variety, we provide a combinatorial approach to construct arbitrary effective torus actions on normal, algebraic varieties. Based on the notion of a ``proper polyhedral divisor'' introduced in…
The main result of this paper is that every (separated) toric variety which has a semigroup structure compatible with multiplication on the underlying torus is necessarily affine. In the course of proving this statement, we also give a…
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…
Orbifold elliptic genus and elliptic genus of singular varieties are introduced and relation between them is studied. Elliptic genus of singular varieties is given in terms of a resolution of singularities and extends the elliptic genus of…
We introduce the notion of a multi-fan. It is a generalization of that of a fan in the theory of toric variety in algebraic geometry. Roughly speaking a toric variety is an algebraic variety with an action of algebraic torus of the same…
We consider subtorus actions on divisorial toric varieties. Here divisoriality means that the variety has many Cartier divisors like quasiprojective and smooth ones. We characterize when a subtorus action on such a toric variety admits a…
Using the language of polyhedral divisors and divisorial fans we describe invariant divisors on normal varieties X which admit an effective codimension one torus action. In this picture X is given by a divisorial fan on a smooth projective…
We prove several vanishing theorems for a class of generalized elliptic genera on foliated manifolds, by using classical equivariant index theory. The main techniques are the use of the Jacobi theta-functions and the construction of a new…
Three types of rigidity theorem for orbifold elliptic genus of level N are proved. The first type deals with the case where N is relatively prime to the orders of all isotropy groups. If the top exterior power of the tangent bundle is…
We construct {\it Topological Elliptic Genera}, homotopy-theoretic refinements of the elliptic genera for $SU$-manifolds and variants including the Witten-Landweber-Ochanine genus. The codomains are genuinely $G$-equivariant Topological…
In this paper, we prove that there exists an equivalence between 2-category of smooth Deligne-Mumford stacks with torus-embeddings and actions, and the 1-category of stacky fans. For this purpose, we obtain two main results. The first is to…
Generalising toric geometry we study compact varieties admitting lower dimensional torus actions. In particular we describe divisors on them in terms of convex geometry and give a criterion for their ampleness. These results may be used to…
We develop a theory of multi-stage degenerations of toric varieties over finite rank valuation rings, extending the Mumford--Gubler theory in rank one. Such degenerations are constructed from fan-like structures over totally ordered abelian…
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 give a complete classification of the torus-equivariant birational equivalence classes of smooth proper toric Deligne-Mumford stacks with trivial generic stabilizer in terms of their associated stacky fans.
We show that elliptic classes introduced in our earlier paper for spaces with infinite fundamental groups yield Novikov's type higher elliptic genera which are invariants of K-equivalence. This include, as a special case, the birational…
We apply a Mayer-Vietoris sequence argument to identify the Atiyah-Segal equivariant complex K-theory rings of certain toric varieties with rings of integral piecewise Laurent polynomials on the associated fans. We provide necessary and…
Associated to a toric variety $X$ of dimension $r$ over a field $k$ is a fan $\Delta$ on $\Bbb R^r$. The fan $\Delta$ is a finite set of cones which are in one-to-one correspondence with the orbits of the torus action on $X$. The fan…
