A toric vector bundle $\mathcal{E}$ is a torus equivariant vector bundle on a toric variety. We give a valuation theoretic and tropical point of view on toric vector bundles. We present three (equivalent) classifications of toric vector…
Localization is a topological technique that allows us to make global equivariant computations in terms of local data at the fixed points. For example, we may compute a global integral by summing integrals at each of the fixed points. Or,…
For any (n+1)-dimensional weight vector {\chi} of positive integers, the weighted projective space P(\chi) is a projective toric variety, and has orbifold singularities in every case other than CP^n. We study the algebraic topology of…
We study the geometric change of Chow cohomology classes in projective toric varieties under the Weil-McMullen dual of the intersection product with a Lefschetz element. Based on this, we introduce toric chordality, a generalization of…
The celebrated BKK Theorem expresses the number of roots of a system of generic Laurent polynomials in terms of the mixed volume of the corresponding system of Newton polytopes.Pukhlikov and the second author noticed that the cohomology…
We compute the cohomology of the complement of toric arrangements associated to root systems as representations of the corresponding Weyl groups. Specifically, we develop an algorithm for computing the cohomology of the complement of toric…
We develop equivariant KK-theory for locally compact groupoid actions by Morita equivalences on real and complex graded C*-algebras. Functoriality with respect to generalised morphisms and Bott periodicity are discussed. We introduce…
In this paper we develop an equivariant intersection theory for actions of algebraic groups on algebraic schemes. The theory is based on our construction of equivariant Chow groups. They are algebraic analogues of equivariant cohomology…
Toric geometry provides a bridge between the theory of polytopes and algebraic geometry: one can associate to each lattice polytope a polarized toric variety. In this thesis we explore this correspondence to classify smooth lattice…
Let G be an algebraic group corresponding to a compact Lie group. We study the restiction map from the Chow ring CH(BG) to the Wely group invariants CH(BT)^W. For example, we note that if G is simply connect and H(G) has torsion, then the…
We introduce the notion of a \emph{conic sequence} of a convex polytope. It is a way of building up a polytope starting from a vertex and attaching faces one by one with certain regulations. We apply this to a toric variety to obtain an…
Classical local Weyl modules for a simple Lie algebra are labeled by dominant weights. We generalize the definition to the case of arbitrary weights and study the properties of the generalized modules. We prove that the representation…
In this article we study the equivariant elliptic cohomology of complex toric varieties. We prove a partial reconstruction theorem showing that equivariant elliptic cohomology encodes considerable non-trivial information on the equivariant…
We find presentations for subalgebras of invariants of the coordinate algebras of binary symmetric models of phylogenetic trees studied by Buczynska and Wisniewski in \cite{BW}. These algebras arise as toric degenerations of rings of global…
Inspired by piecewise polynomiality results of double Hurwitz numbers, Ardila and Brugall\'e introduced an enumerative problem which they call double Gromov--Witten invariants of Hirzebruch surfaces. These invariants serve as a…
Extending work of Bielawski-Dancer and Konno, we develop a theory of toric hyperkahler varieties, which involves toric geometry, matroid theory and convex polyhedra. The framework is a detailed study of semi-projective toric varieties,…
We give a Klyachko-type classification of topological/smooth/holomorphic $(\mathbb{C}^{*})^n$-equivariant vector bundles that are equivariantly trivial over invariant affine charts. This generalizes Klyachko's classification of toric vector…
A map Y -> P^n is determined by a line bundle quotient of (O_Y)^{n+1}. In this paper, we generalize this description to the case of maps from Y to an arbitrary smooth toric variety. The data needed to determine such a map consists of a…
We study the dependence of geometric quantization of the standard symplectic torus on the choice of invariant polarization. Real and mixed polarizations are interpreted as degenerate complex structures. Using a weak version of the equations…
We study a variety of questions centered around the computation of cohomology of line bundles on the incidence correspondence (the partial flag variety parametrizing pairs consisting of a point in projective space and a hyperplane…
