How to compute the $G$-theory of the weighted projective space $\mathbb{P}(1,1,2)$?
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let $\Sigma$ be the fan in $\mathbb{R}^2$ consisting of three cones, cone generated by $e_1,e_2$,cone generated by $e_2,-e_1-2e_2$ and ...

Is a toric variety over a field of positive characteristic complete if and only if the support is all of $ N_{\mathbb{R}} $?
In Cox, Little and Schenck's book Toric Varieties they show that a toric variety $ X_{\Sigma} $ over a field of characteristic zero is complete if and only if the support is all of $ N_{\mathbb{R}} $. ...

Approximation of convex bodies by polytopes corresponding to smooth toric varieties
Let $P\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be an $n$-dimensional polytope with rational vertices. There is a well known construction which produces an $n$-dimensional algebraic variety $X_P$ called toric variety. In ...

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 ...

If $ Z $ is an $ n $-dimensional, projective variety, containing $ \mathbb{G}_{m}^{n} $, what is the obstruction to $ Z $ being toric?
Let $ Z $ be an $ n $-dimensional, projective, variety, over a field of arbitrary characteristic and let $ \iota: \mathbb G_{m}^{n} \to Z $ be a morphism such that for any $ z \in Z $, the fibre $ \...

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 ...

Has anyone researched additive analogues of toric geometry in characteristic zero?
One definition of an $ n $-dimensional toric variety is that it is a variety $ Z $ for which there exists an equivariant embedding of
$ \mathbb{G}_{m}^{n} $ as a Zariski dense, open sub-variety of $ Z ...

Facets of polytopes and toric morphisms
To every convex lattice polytope $P$ is associated a toric variety $X_P$, which can be realized as a projective variety.
Consider a facet $f$ of $P$, i.e. a codimension one boundary of the polytope.
