We extend the methods developed in our earlier work to algorithmically compute the intersection cohomology Betti numbers of reductive varieties. These form a class of highly symmetric varieties that includes equivariant compactifications of reductive groups. Thereby, we extend a well-known algorithm for toric varieties.
In this article, we complete the interpretation of groups of classes of invariant divisors on a complex toric variety X of dimension n in terms of suitable (co-) homology groups. In [BBFK], we proved the following result (see Satz 1 below): Let and denote the groups of classes of invariant Cartier resp. Weil divisors on X. If X is non degenerate (i.e., not equivariantly isomorphic to the product of a toric variety and a torus of positive dimension), then the natural homomorphisms and are...
We generalize a theorem of Siciak on the polynomial approximation of the Lelong class to the setting of toric manifolds with an ample line bundle. We also characterize Lelong classes by means of a growth condition on toric manifolds with an ample line bundle and construct an example of a nonample line bundle for which Siciak's theorem does not hold.
The Cox ring provides a coordinate system on a toric variety analogous to the homogeneous coordinate ring of projective space. Rational maps between projective spaces are described using polynomials in the coordinate ring, and we generalise this to toric varieties, providing a unified description of arbitrary rational maps between toric varieties in terms of their Cox coordinates. Introducing formal roots of polynomials is necessary even in the simplest examples.
A combinatorial description of the minimal free resolution of a lattice ideal allows us to the connection of Integer Linear Programming and Al1gebra. The non null reduced homology spaces of some simplicial complexes are the key. The extremal rays of the associated cone reduce the number of variables.
In this paper we introduce the notion of modified Nash triviality for a family of zero sets of real polynomial map-germs as a desirable one. We first give a Nash isotopy lemma which is a useful tool to show triviality.Then, using it, we prove two types of modified Nash triviality theorem and a finite classification theorem for this triviality. These theorems strengthen similar topological results.
We extend the construction of moment-angle complexes to simplicial posets by associating a certain T m-space Z S to an arbitrary simplicial poset S on m vertices. Face rings ℤ[S] of simplicial posets generalise those of simplicial complexes, and give rise to new classes of Gorenstein and Cohen-Macaulay rings. Our primary motivation is to study the face rings ℤ[S] by topological methods. The space Z S has many important topological properties of the original moment-angle complex Z K associated to...
Let be an integral convex polygon. G. Mikhalkin introduced the notion ofHarnack curves, a class of real algebraic curves, defined by polynomials supported on and contained in the corresponding toric surface. He proved their existence, viaViro’s patchworkingmethod, and that the topological type of their real parts is unique (and determined by ). This paper is concerned with the description of the analogous statement in the case of a smoothing of a real plane branch . We introduce the class...
