In algebraic geometry , a toric variety or torus embedding is a normal variety containing an algebraic torus as an open dense subset , such that the group action action of the torus on itself extends to the whole variety. The toric variety of a fan Suppose that N is a finite rank free abelian group . A strongly convex rational polyhedral cone in N is a convex cone of the real vector space of N with apex at the origin, generated by a finite number of vectors of N , that contains no line through the origin. These will be called cones for short. For each cone its affine toric variety U sub sub is the spectrum of the semigroup algebra of the dual cone . A fan is a collection of cones closed under taking intersections and faces. The toric variety of a fan is given by taking the affine toric varieties of its cones and glueing them together by identifying U sub sub with an open subvariety of U sub sub whenever is a face of . Conversely, every fan of strongly convex rational cones has an associated toric variety. The fan associated with a toric variety condenses some important data about the variety. For example, a variety is smooth if every cone in its fan can be generated by a subset ... A toric variety is nonsingular if its cones of maximal dimension are generated by a basis of the lattice. This implies that every toric variety has a resolution of singularities given by another toric variety, which can be constructed by subdividing the maximal cones into cones of nonsingular toric varieties.

In mathematics, a k Scorza variety is a smooth projective variety, of maximal dimension among those whose k 1 secant varieties are not the whole of projective space. Scorza varieties were introduced and classified by harvs txt last Zak authorlink Fyodor Zak year 1993 , who named them after Gaetano Scorza . The special case of 2 Scorza varieties are sometimes called Severi varieties , after Francesco Severi . Classification Zak showed that k Scorza varieties are the projective varieties of the rank 1 matrices of rank k simple Jordan algebra s. Severi varieties The Severi varieties are the non singular varieties of dimension n even in P sup N sup that can be isomorphically projected to a hyperplane and satisfy N 3 n 2. Severi showed in 1901 that the only Severi variety with n 2 is the Veronese surface in P sup 5 sup . The only Severi variety with n 4 is the Segre embedding of P sup 2 sup × P sup 2 sup into P sup 8 sup , found by Scorza in 1908. The only Segre variety with n 8 is the 8 dimensional Grassmannian G 1,5 of lines in P sup 5 sup embedded into P sup 14 sup , found by John Greenlees Semple in 1931. The only Severi variety with n 16 is a 16 dimensional variety E sub 6 sub Spin 10 U 1 in P sup 26 sup found by R. Lazarsfeld in 1981. These 4 Severi varieties can be constructed in a uniform way, as orbits of groups acting on the complexifications of the 3 by 3 hermitian matrices over the four real possibly non associative division algebras of dimensions 2 sup k sup 1, 2, 4, 8. These representations have complex dimensions 3 2 sup k sup 1 6, 9, 15, and 27, giving varieties of dimension 2 sup k 1 sup 2, 4, 8, 16 in projective spaces of dimensions 3 2 sup k sup 2 5, 8, 14, and 26. Zak proved that the only Severi varieties are the 4 listed above, of dimensions 2, 4, 8, 16.

In mathematics , the Prym variety construction named for Friedrich Prym is a method in algebraic geometry of making an abelian variety from a morphism of algebraic curve s. In its original form, it was applied to an unramified Double cover topology double covering of a Riemann surface , and was used by Friedrich Schottky F. Schottky and H. W. E. Jung in relation with the Schottky problem , as it now called, of characterising Jacobian varieties among abelian varieties. It is said to have appeared first in the late work of Bernhard Riemann Riemann , and was extensively studied by Wilhelm Wirtinger Wirtinger in 1895, including degenerate cases. Given a non constant morphism &phi C sub 1 sub &rarr C sub 2 sub of algebraic curves, write J sub i sub for the Jacobian variety of C sub i sub . Then from construct the corresponding morphism &psi J sub 1 sub &rarr J sub 2 sub , which can be defined on a divisor class D of degree zero by applying to each point of the divisor. This is a well defined morphism, often called the norm homomorphism . Then the Prym variety of is the kernel algebra kernel of . To qualify that somewhat, to get an abelian variety , the connected component of the identity of the reduced scheme underlying the kernel scheme theory kernel may be intended. Or in other words take the largest abelian subvariety of J sub 1 sub , on which is trivial. The theory of Prym varieties was dormant for a long time, until revived by David Mumford around 1970. It now plays a substantial role in some contemporary theories, for example of the Kadomtsev Petviashvili equation . One advantage of the method is that it allows one to apply the theory of curves to the study of a wider class of abelian varieties than Jacobians. For example, principally polarized abelian varieties p.p.a.v. s of dimension 3 are not generally Jacobians, but all p.p.a.v. s of dimension 5 or less are Prym varieties. It is for this reason that p.p.a.v. s are fairly well understood up to dimension ... more details

More generally, given a Semisimple algebraic group semisimple algebraic group G with a Borel subgroup B and a standard parabolic subgroup P , it is known that the homogeneous space X G P , which is an example of a flag variety , consists of finitely many B orbits that may be parametrized by certain elements of the Weyl group W . The closure of the B orbit associated to an element w of the Weyl group is denoted by X sub w sub and is called a Schubert variety in G P . The classical case corresponds to G SL sub n sub and P being the k th maximal parabolic subgroup of  G . Significance Schubert varieties form one of the most important and best studied classes of singular algebraic varieties. A certain measure of singularity of Schubert varieties is provided by Kazhdan Lusztig polynomial s, which encode their local Goresky MacPherson intersection cohomology .

Built in 1835, the building was originally known as the Weed House, but was renamed Variety Unit to reflect the wide range of decorative arts exhibited there. Architecture The original brick structure, with its front gable orientation and fully articulated pediment, reflects the style of Greek Revival architecture popular in the mid 19th century. However, the complex rambling interior composed of a series of one and two room additions, constructed over time as the occupants required more space, embodies the New England tradition of continuous architecture.

Numerous Paramount contract players and directors make cameos or perform songs, with particularly large amounts of screen time featuring Bing Crosby . The story revolves around two young girls who exchange identities, causing confusion at the Variety Club show business charity and the Paramount studio. The elaborate closing song, Harmony, begins with Bing Crosby and Bob Hope singing and dancing on stage in matching checkered suits and straw hats, eventually moves to a merry go round with Gary Cooper in cowboy regalia seated on a plastic horse while talking through a couple of stanzas with Barry Fitzgerald , then gradually incorporates the entire cast, which includes almost everyone under contract to Paramount at the time, in a rousing finale launched by William Holden and Ray Milland chasing a scantily clad woman across a soundstage. The film featured a cartoon sequence in Technicolor which is in black and white in most prints.

In number theory , a Shimura variety is a higher dimensional analogue of a modular curve that arises as a quotient of a Hermitian symmetric space by a congruence subgroup of a reductive algebraic group defined over Q . The term Shimura variety applies to the higher dimensional case, in the case of one dimensional varieties one speaks of Shimura curves . Hilbert modular surface s and Siegel modular form Siegel modular varieties are among the best known classes of Shimura varieties. Special instances of Shimura varieties were originally introduced by Goro Shimura in the course of his generalization of the complex multiplication theory. Shimura showed that while initially defined analytically, they are arithmetic objects, in the sense that they admit models field of definition defined over a number field , the reflex field of the Shimura variety.

These are grapes that are highly likely to appear on wine label s as varietal wines and are often considered Benchmarking benchmarks for emerging wine industries. There is some criticism that the popularity of so called international varieties comes at the price of a region s Indigenous ecology indigenous varieties. The majority of declared international varieties are French wine French in origin most notably Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay , though in recent years the popularity of Spanish wine Spanish such as Tempranillo and Italian wine Italian varietals like Sangiovese and Nebbiolo has seen an increase in worldwide plantings and these may also be considered international varieties . ref name Oxford pg 358 J.

In algebraic geometry , a Fano variety , introduced by harvs authorlink Gino Fano last Fano year1 1934 year2 1942 , is a non singular Complete algebraic variety complete variety whose anticanonical bundle is ample line bundle ample . Fano varieties are quite rare, compared to other families, like Calabi Yau manifold s and general type surface s. The example of projective hypersurfaces The fundamental example of Fano varieties are the algebraic geometry of projective spaces projective spaces the canonical line bundle anticanonical line bundle of math mathbb P mathbf k n math is math mathcal O n 1 math , which is very ample its curvature is n 1 times the Fubini Study symplectic form . Let D be a smooth Weil divisor in math mathbb P mathbf k n math , from the adjunction formula , we infer math mathcal K D mathcal K X D n 1 H mathrm deg D H D math , where H is the class of the hyperplane. The hypersurface D is therefore Fano if and only if math mathrm deg D n 1 math . Some properties The existence of an ample line bundle on X is equivalent to X being a projective variety , so this is the case for Fano varieties. The Kodaira vanishing theorem implies that the sheaf cohomology higher cohomology groups math H i X, mathcal O X math of the structure sheaf vanish for math i 0 math . In particular, the first Chern class induces an isomorphism math c 1 mathrm Pic X to H 2 X, mathbb Z . math A Fano variety is simply connected and is uniruled , in particular it has Kodaira dimension &minus . Classification in small dimensions Fano varieties in dimensions 1 are isomorphism isomorphic to the projective line . In dimension 2 they are del Pezzo surface s and are isomorphic to either math mathbb P 1 times mathbb P 1 math or to the projective plane blown up in at most 8 general points, and in particular are again all rational. In dimension 3 there are non rational examples. Iskovskih harvtxt last1 Iskovskih year1 1977 year2 1978 year3 1979 classified the Fano 3 folds with second Betti number ... more details
