Geometric invariant theory and projective toric varieties

Algebraic Geometry 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

This is an expository paper in which we define projective GIT quotients and introduce toric varieties from this perspective. It is intended primarily for readers who are learning either invariant theory or toric geometry for the first time.
