    Toric varieties

    Fans, the orbit-cone correspondence, and toric resolution of singularities.

    • The fan dictionary, the construction, the orbit-cone correspondence, smoothness and resolution, and a table of which fan supplies which counterexample.

    • Affine toric computations, dualising a cone by hand, the equations of \(X_\sigma\), the cone over the rational normal curve, and minimal resolution by convex hull.

    • Polytopes and divisors, the normal fan, \(\Cl\) and \(\Pic\) from the rays, the polytope \(P_D\) and its lattice points as sections, ampleness, and the reflexive polytopes behind the toric Fanos.

    • Toric surfaces and toric morphisms, the completeness criterion, the classification of smooth complete toric surfaces, intersection numbers, blowups as star subdivisions, and weighted projective space.

    • Criteria and numerical invariants, one table of the fan conditions for smooth, complete, projective and Fano, the Betti numbers from the cone counts, and the degree as a normalised volume.
