Weights in the cohomology of toric varieties

Andrzej Weber (2004)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We describe the weight filtration in the cohomology of toric varieties. We present a role of the Frobenius automorphism in an elementary way. We prove that equivariant intersection homology of an arbitrary toric variety is pure. We obtain results concerning Koszul duality: nonequivariant intersection cohomology is equal to the cohomology of the Koszul complexIH T*(X)⊗H*(T). We also describe the weight filtration inIH *(X).

Describing toric varieties and their equivariant cohomology

Matthias Franz (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Topologically, compact toric varieties can be constructed as identification spaces: they are quotients of the product of a compact torus and the order complex of the fan. We give a detailed proof of this fact, extend it to the non-compact case and draw several, mostly cohomological conclusions. In particular, we show that the equivariant integral cohomology of a toric variety can be described in terms of piecewise polynomials on the fan if the ordinary integral cohomology is concentrated...

Weights in cohomology and the Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence

Matthias Franz, Andrzej Weber (2005)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We show that in the category of complex algebraic varieties, the Eilenberg–Moore spectral sequence can be endowed with a weight filtration. This implies that it degenerates if all spaces involved have pure cohomology. As application, we compute the rational cohomology of an algebraic G -variety X ( G being a connected algebraic group) in terms of its equivariant cohomology provided that H G * ( X ) is pure. This is the case, for example, if X is smooth and has only finitely many orbits. We work...

Intersection cohomology of reductive varieties

Roy Joshua, Michel Brion (2004)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

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.
