Toric decomposition of multipartitions

Fix $k \in \mathbb Z_{>0}$. By a $k$-multipartition $\lambda=(\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_k)$ of $N$, I mean that each $\lambda_i$ is a partition of some $N_i$ and $\sum N_i = N$. Let's call $\lambda$ ...

How to compute the multiplicity of a strongly convex, rational, polyhedral cone $ \sigma $?

In David Cox, John Little and Hal Schenck's book Toric Varieties page 302, Chapter 6, Section 4, Proposition 6.4.4, the authors state the following proposition. If $ \Sigma $ is a simplicial fan of ...

When is a wonderful compactification a toric variety?

Given a (projective) hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ in $\mathbb{C}^n$, in which we assume the intersection of all hyperplanes is $0$, and a building set $G$, De Concini and Procesi define the ...

Resolutions of configuration space of the projective line where the complement is of "Tate type"

I would like to find a nice compactification $X_n$ of $F(\mathbb P^1,n)$ (considered as a scheme over $\mathbb Z$), the $n$-fold configuration space of the projective line with the property that the $...

From Delzant polytope to lattice polytope

By definition, an $n$-dimensional Delzant polytope $P$ is not necessarily a lattice polytope. But is there a natural way (or operations) to turn $P$ into a lattice polytope using the fact that the ...

Polytope algebra and toric vareties

Let $\Pi$ denote the McMullen polytope algebra (over the field of rationals $\mathbb{Q}$) generated by convex polytopes with rational vertices in $\mathbb{R}^n$. For a simple polytope $P$ let us ...

Structure of fibers of (complex) moment map of hypertoric variety

I am primarily interested in the hypertoric variety $\mathfrak M(\mathcal B_d)$ associated to the braid arrangement. Any hypertoric variety $X$, say of complex dimension $2n$, comes equipped with an ...

Toric Bézier patches

Toric Bézier patches (as described in https://arxiv.org/abs/0706.2116) are maps from a lattice polytope $P$ to the positive part of its associated toric variety $X_P$. While they are not the inverse ...

Cohomology ring of a hypersurface in toric variety

Let $X^n$ be a smooth projective toric variety corresponding to a simple polytope $P$. It is well known that the cohomology ring $H^*(X)$ can be described in terms of combinatorics of faces of $P$. ...

Coordinate-symmetric convex polytopes with equal Erhart (quasi)-polynomials

Recall that given a nondegenerate polytope $P \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ which is the convex set of some vectors with integral coordinates, the Erhart polynomial $p_P(t)$ a polynomial such that $p_P(t)$ ...

Secondary fan and KN strata

Let $\mathbb{G}_m^r$ act on the affine space $\mathbb{A}^n$ through an embedding into the open dense torus. Is there a way to calculate the 1-parameter subgroups that determine the KN strata from the ...

Linear relations between volume of a polytope and its faces

Let $P$ be a polytope. Is anything known about the set of linear relations that hold between the volumes of the (not-necessarily proper) faces of $P$ as $P$ “varies slightly”? By varies slightly I ...

Possible volumes of lattice polytopes

All polytopes here are assumed to be convex lattice polytopes. Given a polytope $P$, set $$v(P):= (\operatorname{vol}(F))_{F\text{ a face of }P},$$ where the volume of a $d$-dimensional polytope $P\...

condition on rational polyhedral cone to guarantee dual cone is homogeneous

Let $\sigma\subseteq \Bbb R^d$ be a full-dimensional rational polyhedral cone which is strongly convex (i.e. $\sigma\cap-\sigma=0$). Definition. The cone $\sigma$ is homogeneous if there are ...
