Asymptotically Maximal Families of Hypersurfaces in Toric Varieties
نویسنده
چکیده
A real algebraic variety is maximal (with respect to the SmithThom inequality) if the sum of the Betti numbers (with Z2 coefficients) of the real part of the variety is equal to the sum of Betti numbers of its complex part. We prove that there exist polytopes that are not Newton polytopes of any maximal hypersurface in the corresponding toric variety. On the other hand we show that for any polytope ∆ there are families of hypersurfaces with the Newton polytopes (λ∆)λ∈N that are asymptotically maximal when λ tends to infinity. We also show that these results generalize to complete intersections.

Torus Fibrations of Calabi-Yau Hypersurfaces in Toric Varieties and Mirror Symmetry
We consider regular Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in N -dimensional smooth toric varieties. On such a hypersurface in the neighborhood of the large complex structure limit point we construct a fibration over a sphere S whose generic fibers are tori T. Also for certain one-parameter families of such hypersurfaces we show that the monodromy transformation is induced by a translation of the T fibration...
متن کاملTowards the Mirror Symmetry for Calabi-Yau Complete Intersections in Gorenstein Toric Fano Varieties
We propose a combinatorical duality for lattice polyhedra which conjecturally gives rise to the pairs of mirror symmetric families of Calabi-Yau complete intersections in toric Fano varieties with Gorenstein singularities. Our construction is a generalization of the polar duality proposed by Batyrev for the case of hypersurfaces.
متن کاملOn the Hodge structure of degenerating hypersurfaces in toric varieties
We introduce an algebraic method for describing the Hodge filtration of degenerating hypersurfaces in projective toric varieties. For this purpose, we show some fundamental properties of logarithmic differential forms on proper equivariant morphisms of toric varieties.
متن کاملReflexive Polytopes and Lattice-Polarized K3 Surfaces
We review the standard formulation of mirror symmetry for Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties, and compare this construction to a description of mirror symmetry for K3 surfaces which relies on a sublattice of the Picard lattice. We then show how to combine information about the Picard group of a toric ambient space with data about automorphisms of the toric variety to identify families ...
متن کاملEuler Characteristic of Primitive T -hypersurfaces and Maximal Surfaces
Viro method plays an important role in the study of topology of real algebraic hypersurfaces. The T -primitive hypersurfaces we study here appear as the result of Viro’s combinatorial patchworking when one starts with a primitive triangulation. We show that the Euler characteristic of the real part of such a hypersurface of even dimension is equal to the signature of its complex part. We use th...
