Homology classes of subvarieties of toric varieties
Let $X$ be a smooth proper toric variety, $Z\subseteq X$ a smooth subvariety.
Is the fundamental class $[Z] \in H_\ast(X) = A_\ast(X)$ nonzero?
Background
If $X$ is a Kaehler variety, this is of ...

How should we think about the algebraic moment map?
My question is about the "algebraic moment map", as discussed by Frank Sottile in the final section of this paper, or by Bill Fulton in his Introduction to Toric Varieties, where he referes ...

Rational points of weighted projective spaces
[EDIT (Feb. 27, 2024): No answer to the reference question yet, but I explain a more general statement at the end.]
Let $k$ be a field and let $\underline{a}=(a_0,\dots,a_n)$ be a tuple of positive ...

A commutative monoid associated with a finite abelian group
Let $M$ be a finite abelian group, and denote by $e_m$, for $m \in M$, the canonical basis of $\mathbb{Z}^M$. For $m, n \in M$ define elements $v_{m,n} \in \mathbb{Z}^M/\langle e_0\rangle$ as

Big tangent bundle
Let $X$ be a nonsingular complex algebraic variety whose tangent bundle is $T_X$. I use Lazarsfeld's book for the definition of a big vector bundle. A line bundle $L$ is big if it has Itaka dimension ...

Hilbert schemes of points on toric surfaces
Let $\mathrm{S}$ be a smooth toric surface. The Hilbert scheme of $n$ points $\mathrm{Hilb}^n(\mathrm{S})$ inherits a torus action, but need not admit the structure of a toric variety itself. For ...

Computing Ext for toric divisors
Ok, I have an affine (normal) toric variety $X = \text{Spec} k[\sigma]$. Suppose that $F, G$ are two torus invariant Weil divisors on $X$. Is there any relatively straightforward way to compute

How to calculate the top Chern class of a "functorial" vector bundle on a moduli space of sheaves?
Let $\mathcal M$ be a moduli space of sheaves on a nice variety $X$, with fixed rank $r$ and Chern classes $c_i$, semi-stable with respect to an ample bundle $H$. Let $E$ be a "functorial" vector ...

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 ...

Does a discriminant condition on $f(x,y)$ imply that $f$ is weighted homogeneous?
[This is an updated version of https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/4522399/.]
Let $f = \sum_{i=0}^n f_iy^i \in \mathbb{C}[x,y]$ be a polynomial (where $f_i \in \mathbb{C}[x]$ with $f_0,f_n \ne 0$)...

Derived category of toroidal varieties
This question comes from the first reduction step of Theorem 4.2 of Kawamata's paper on K-equivalent implies D-equivalent on toroidal varieties. But my question has little to do with this theorem.
A ...

When should a moment polytope have "smooth" faces?
A codimension $d$ face of a polytope is called rationally smooth if it lies on only $d$ facets, because this is exactly the condition for the corresponding toric variety to have only orbifold ...

"Reflexive" differentials on Gorenstein affine toric variety
Let $P \subset \mathbb{R}^{n-1}$ be a lattice polytope of dimension $n-1$ and let $\sigma \subset \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^{n-1}$ be the cone over $1 \times P$.
To the cone $\sigma$, we may ...

Toric Degenerations and Nearby Cycles
Suppose that $f: X \to \mathbb{A}^1$ is a toric degeneration in the sense of Nishinou-Siebert. In other words let X be a (possibly singular) toric variety equipped with a (not necessarily proper) ...
