Abstract:
We use a polyhedral criterion for the existence of diagonal splittings to investigate which toric varieties $X$ are diagonally split. Our results are stated in terms of the vector configuration given by primitive generators of the 1-dimensional cones in the fan defining $X$. We show, in particular, that $X$ is diagonally split at all $q$ if and only if this configuration is unimodular, and that $X$ is not diagonally split at any $q$ if this configuration is not $2$-regular. We also study implications for the possibilities for the set of $q$ at which a toric variety $X$ is diagonally split.References
