Algebraic topology of Calabi–Yau threefolds in toric varieties
One of the most fruitful sources of Calabi–Yau threefolds is hypersurfaces, or more generally complete intersections, in toric varieties. This is especially true since there is a proposal for the mirror of any such Calabi–Yau threefold. Usually the toric varieties associated to convex lattice polytopes are singular, causing the Calabi–Yau threefolds in them also to be singular, so that to get s...
متن کاملTopology of Singular Algebraic Varieties
I will discuss recent progress by many people in the program of extending natural topological invariants from manifolds to singular spaces. Intersection homology theory and mixed Hodge theory are model examples of such invariants. The past 20 years have seen a series of new invariants, partly inspired by string theory, such as motivic integration and the elliptic genus of a singular variety. Th...
متن کاملToric ideals, real toric varieties, and the algebraic moment map
This is a tutorial on some aspects of toric varieties related to their potential use in geometric modeling. We discuss projective toric varieties and their ideals, as well as real toric varieties. In particular, we explain the relation between linear precision and a particular linear projection we call the algebraic moment map.
متن کاملCanonical Toric Fano Threefolds
An inductive approach to classifying all toric Fano varieties is given. As an application of this technique, we present a classification of the toric Fano threefolds with at worst canonical singularities. Up to isomorphism, there are 674,688 such varieties.
متن کاملEquivariant Cohomology in Algebraic Geometry Lecture Thirteen: Toric Varieties
Let X be a complete nonsingular toric variety. In this lecture, we will descibe H∗ TX. First we recall some basic notions about toric varieties. Let T be an n-dimensional torus with character group M , and let N = HomZ(M,Z) be the dual lattice. Then X = X(Σ), for a complete nonsingular fan Σ. That is, Σ is a collection of cones σ in NR = N ⊗ZR such that two cones meet along a face of each; each...
