Introduction

One can associate to a toric variety a scheme. The resulting class of schemes then benefits from the functionality that is available both for toric varieties and for schemes.

Content

We currently provide the following basic conversions:

  • Turn an affine toric variety into an affine scheme.
  • Turn a normal toric variety into a covered scheme.

Some (but not yet all) of the toric functionality is available for the resulting toric schemes.

Status

This project is experimental. This means that names of functions may change without being announced. In addition, the existing functionality has not yet been tested for a long time, and so may break unexpectedly.

Long term goals

We aim for a robust interface between toric varieties and schemes.
