Understanding projective space as fibrations of tori over spaces with boundaries

The toric manifold $\mathbb{CP}^1$ can be understood as a circle fibration over an interval $I$, with the circles having zero radius at the boundaries of the interval. How does one generalize this ...

To what extent are toric manifolds and principal torus bundles "the same thing"?

I am a little confused by the different definitions for toric manifolds/varieties. Depending on the definition of toric manifolds and principal torus bundles that one chooses, when is a toric manifold ...

What is the symplectic manifold whose Delzant polytope is a trapezoid?

What is the symplectic form on the manifold whose associated Delzant polytope is a trapezoid? I am trying to find it by using the Marsden–Weinstein theorem, but I have been unable to do so. If ...

Geodesic rays in a toric variety

Let $\{\alpha_0, \ldots, \alpha_r\} \subset \mathbb{Z}^n$ be a finite subset of lattice points and let $\Phi: (\mathbb{C}^*)^n \to \mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^r$ be the corresponding map from the algebraic ...

Moment map coordinates in tours action

I am trying to understand the proof of lemma 3.1, in this paper In proof, they say that $g(dz_i,d\tau_k)=dz_i(\nabla\tau_k)=0$ I don't understand first and second equality.In second they say, $g(dz_i,...

Kahler-Einstein metrics on Toric manifolds are Torus-invariant?

let $(M,\omega)$ be a Kahler-Einstein toric manifold of complex dimension $m$. By toric manifold i mean a manifold that has an open dense subset $X$ biholomorphic to an algebraic torus $\mathbb{T}^{m}...

Legal potentials on delzant polytopes

Let $P \subset \mathbb R^n$ be a Delzant polytope defined by inequalities $\ell_i(x) \geq 0, i=1, \ldots, d$. Of course, from the symplectic point of view, the inequalities $a_i \ell_i \geq 0$ still ...

Toric Fano Kahler manifolds and Delzant polytopes

Let $P$ be a Delzant polytope in $\mathbb R^n$, given by a set of inequalities $\ell_i(x) > 0$ where $\ell_i(x) = \sum_k \mu_k^i x_k - \lambda_i$. In his paper http://arxiv.org/abs/0803.0985 ...

Is there an extremal metric on toric Fano manifolds which have nonzero Futaki invariant?

According the work by Wang & Zhu, on toric Fano manifolds there exist Kaehler-Ricci solitons. If Futaki=0, there also exist CSCK metrics. But if the Futaki invariant does not vanish, what about ...

"Step-by-Step" toric resolution process?

WLOG the fan $\Sigma$ of our toric variety $X_{\Sigma}$ is simplicial. (So $X_{\Sigma}$ has at worst orbifold singularities and all cones $\sigma \in \Sigma$ are simplicial). The classical toric ...

Smooth projective toric varieties which are quotients of product of spheres and torii by a free torus action?

My question is just as in the box. Is every smooth projective toric variety diffeomorphic to a quotient of $\prod_i S^{n_i} \times T^k$ (I know torus is a one-sphere but I just wanted to make clear I ...

Deformations of Hirzebruch surfaces and toric action

Hi, the Hirzebruch surface $F_n$ admits a deformation for $0\leq m\leq n$ defined by the equation $$ \mathcal{M}=\{ ([x_0:x_1],[y_0:y_1:y_2],t) \in \mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^2 \times \mathbb{C}...
