Higher Nash blowup on normal toric varieties

Algebraic Geometry 2020-05-27 v2

Abstract

The higher Nash blowup of an algebraic variety replaces singular points with limits of certain spaces carrying higher order data associated to the variety at non-singular points. In the case of normal toric varieties we give a combinatorial description of the higher Nash blowup in terms of a Gr\"obner fan. This description will allow us to prove the analogue of Nobile's theorem on the usual Nash blowup in this context. More precisely, we prove that for a normal toric variety, the higher Nash blowup is an isomorphism if and only if the variety is non-singular.
