Final Report Abstract

The present project concerns fundamental research in the field of algebraic geometry, a central branch of modern mathematics which has many vital applications in other branches of mathematics, theoretical physics, computational biology, computer science and engineering. The theory of algebraic varieties with algebraic torus action is a vast and active research field on the border of algebraic geometry, topology, representation theory and discrete mathematics. This project has extended the applicability of methods established in relation to equivariant cohomology and toric geometry in order to understand the geometry of algebraic varieties with torus action. The main novel findings concern deformation theory, sheaves and cohomology as well as birational geometry. In each case, there are either combinatorial techniques developed and employed, or combinatorial problems are solved using tools from algebraic geometry.
