Finitely generated section ring of Mori dream spaces
Set-up: We work over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $X$ be a Mori dream space. Define, following Hu-Keel, the Cox ring of $X$ as the multisection ring
$$\text{Cox}(X)=\bigoplus_{(m_1\ldots,m_k)\in \mathbb{N}^k} \...

Is there some kind of construction of a "canonical unirational variety" like the one for toric varieties?
Toric varieties in some sense a "canonical rational variety" in that one can construct them from purely combinatorial data and this combinatorial data makes it possible to turn many ...

When is a smooth point of a projective, simplicial, toric variety $ X_{\Sigma} $ compatibly $ F $-split?
A variety $ X $ is $ F $-split if there exists an $ \mathcal{O}_{X} $-linear map $ \phi: F_{\ast}(\mathcal{O}_{X}) \to \mathcal{O}_{X} $ such that $ \phi \circ F^{\sharp} = \operatorname{id}_{\mathcal{...

Does one only need to look at torus invariant curves to calculate the Seshadri constant for a point of a toric variety?
If $ X $ is an irreducible projective variety, $ L $ is a Nef divisor on $ X $, $ x $ is a point of $ X $, and $ \pi: \operatorname{Bl}_{x}(X) \to X $ is the natural projection morphism, then the ...

What is the minimal $ n $ such that the Cox ring of the blow up of a simplicial, $ r $-dimensional, toric variety at $ n $ points in g.p. is not f.g.?
In Shigeru Mukai's paper "Counterexample to Hilbert's 14th Problem for the 3-dimensional Additive Group," Mukai proved that if $ \frac{1}{r+1}+\frac{1}{n-r-1} \le \frac{1}{2} $, then the ...

Birational model of a log smooth pair
Given a log smooth pair $(X,B)$ with a reduced boundary divisor $B$, consider a birational model $\pi:X' \to X$ and a boundary divisor $B'$ which is given by $K_{X'}+B'=\pi^*(K_X+B)$. Here is my ...
