Complete non-singular toric varieties with Picard number 4

Algebraic Geometry 2025-04-28 v1

Abstract

We classify all complete non-singular toric varieties with Picard number four via a combinatorial framework based on fanlike simplicial spheres and characteristic maps. This classification yields 5959 fanlike seeds with Picard number four, along with all toric manifolds supported by them. As a consequence, we resolve a conjecture of Gretenkort, Kleinschmidt, and Sturmfels by presenting the first known examples of toric manifolds supported by neighborly polytopes. We also answer a question of Batyrev concerning minimal non-faces of such spheres.
