A question related to the strong Oda conjecture
A fan is a collection of strongly convex rational polyhedral cones in $\mathbb Z^n$, which we often think of as contained in $\mathbb Q^n$ or $\mathbb R^n$ for purposes of visualizing it. The defining ...

Blowing up $\mathbb{CP}^2$ nine times and exactness of symplectic form
Consider the (symplectic) blow up $\operatorname{Bl}_k(\mathbb{CP}^2)$ of $\mathbb{CP}^2$ at $k$ points. I have heard that for $k=1,2,\ldots,8$ the size of the balls been blown up can be choosen in ...

Three-dimensional analogues of Hirzebruch surfaces
There are several ways of describing a Hirzebruch surface, for example as the blow-up of $\mathbb{P}^2$ at one point or as $\mathbb{P}(\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^1} \oplus \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^1}(n))$....

Cohomology of fibers of a morphism of a blowup of affine space
Consider $\mathbb A^n$ and let $\Sigma$ be a subdivision of its toric fan $\mathbb R^n_{\geq 0}$. This induces a toric blowup $\pi : Y \to \mathbb A^n$. Let $X \subseteq Y$ be the preimage of the ...

Problem in calculating the global sections of $\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^3}(d)\otimes \mathcal{I}_Z$
This is an additional question to the one I posed in Equivalence of sequences of blowups of $\mathbb{P}^3$
Let $[x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4]$ be coordinates of $\mathbb{P}^3$ and $Z\subset \mathbb{P}^3$ the ...

Equivalence of sequences of blowups of $\mathbb{P}^3$
Let $[x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4]$ be coordinates of $\mathbb{P}^3$ and $Z\subset \mathbb{P}^3$ the subscheme given by the ideal $$I_Z=(x_1,x_2,x_3^2) \subset \mathbb{C}[x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4]$$ i.e. $Z$ is a double ...

Is the blowup of a toric variety corresponding to a subdivision normal?
Toroidal Embeddings 1 by KKMS say subdividing the fan of a toric variety yields the fan of a normalized blowup. How do I avoid normalization? Do I need to choose my subdivision carefully, or is it ...

Why only some del Pezzo are toric?
Let us define smooth del Pezzo surfaces $dP_r$ as the blowup of $r$ generic points in $\mathbb{CP}_2$. One can show that if we request $dP_r$ to be Fano, then $r=0,...,8$. In theoretical physics ...

Existence of a morphism between two toric varieties
Does there exist a morphism between the blow-up of $\mathbb{P}^3$ in four general points and $\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1$? If not why?

Cohomology of the toric variety $X_\Sigma=\mathbb C^2\sqcup \mathbb C^2\big/\left((x,y)_1\sim(x^{-1},y^{-1})_2\right)_{x,y\neq 0}$
I'm writing a thesis on Chow rings of toric varieties and am looking for a reference on the singular cohomology ring of the blowup of $\mathbb C^2$ at xy=0, i.e. at the coordinate axes. The ...
