A toric variety is defined by a certain collection of cones. Especially a toric Fano variety is obtained from a special nonsingular fan. In this paper, we define the f-vectors of toric Fano varieties as the numbers of faces of the corresponding fans, and investigate the f-vectors of some toric Fano varieties.

Toric variety is a normal algebraic variety containing algebraic torus $T_N$ as an open dense subset with an algebraic action of $T_N$ which is an extension of the group law of $T_N$. A toric variety can be described in terms of a certain collection, which is called a fan, of cones. From this fact, the properties of a toric variety have strong connection with the combinatorial structure of the corresponding fan and the relations among the generators. That is, we can translate the diffcult algebrogeometric properties of toric varieties into very simple properties about the combinatorics of cones in affine spaces over the reals.

A cascade of toric log del Pezzo surfaces of Picard number one was introduced as a language of classifying all such surfaces. In this paper, we introduce a generalized concept, a semicascade of toric log del Pezzo surfaces. As applications, we discuss Kähler-Einstein toric log del Pezzo surfaces and derive a bound on the Picard number in terms of the number of singular points, generalizing some results of Dais and Suyama.

Recently, K. Watanabe Showed that the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of a toric ring is a rational number. In this paper we give an explicit formula to compute the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of two-dimensional toric rings. This formula also shows that the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of a two-dimensional non-regular toric ring is at least 3/2.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of toric special weak Fano manifolds, which have only special primitive crepant contractions. We study their structure, and in particular completely classify smooth toric special weak Fano 4-folds. As a result, we can confirm that almost every smooth toric special weak Fano 4-fold is a weakened Fano manifold, that is, a weak Fano manifold which can be deformed to a Fano manifold.

The real moment-angle complex (or, more generally, real polyhedral product) and its real toric space have recently attracted much attention in toric topology. The aim of this paper is to give two interesting remarks regarding real polyhedral products and real toric spaces. That is, we first show that Moore's conjecture holds to be true for certain real polyhedral products. In general, real polyhedral products show some drastic difference between the rational and torsion homotopy groups. Our result shows that at least in terms of the homotopy exponent at a prime this is not the case for real polyhedral products associated to a simplicial complex whose minimal missing faces are all k-simplices with $k{\geq}2$. Moreover, we also show a structural theorem for a finite group G acting simplicially on the real toric space. In other words, we show that G always contains an element of order 2, and so the order of G should be even.

The properties of a toric variety have strong connection with the combinatorial structure of the corresponding fan and the rela-tions among the generators. Using this fact we have described explic-itly the Chow ring for a Q-factorial toric variety as the Stanley-Reisner ring for the corresponding fan modulo the linear equivalence relation. In this paper we calculate the Chow ring for 3-dimensional Q-factorial toric varieties having one bad isolated singularity.

The aim of this short paper is to give a new necessary and sufficient condition, topological in nature, for certain real toric manifolds to be orientable in terms of the connectedness of their particular submanifolds of codimension zero.

Choi and Park introduced an invariant of a finite simple graph, called signed a-number, arising from computing certain topological invariants of some specific kinds of real toric manifolds. They also found the signed a-numbers of path graphs, cycle graphs, complete graphs, and star graphs. We introduce a signed a-polynomial which is a generalization of the signed a-number and gives a-, b-, and c-numbers. The signed a-polynomial of a graph G is related to the $Poincar\acute{e}$ polynomial $P_{M(G)}(z)$, which is the generating function for the Betti numbers of the real toric manifold M(G). We give the generating functions for the signed a-polynomials of not only path graphs, cycle graphs, complete graphs, and star graphs, but also complete bipartite graphs and complete multipartite graphs. As a consequence, we find the Euler characteristic number and the Betti numbers of the real toric manifold M(G) for complete multipartite graphs G.

We develop a framework to construct geometric representations of finite groups G through the correspondence between real toric spaces $X^{\mathbb{R}}$ and simplicial complexes with characteristic matrices. We give a combinatorial description of the G-module structure of the homology of $X^{\mathbb{R}}$. As applications, we make explicit computations of the Weyl group representations on the homology of real toric varieties associated to the Weyl chambers of type A and B, which show an interesting connection to the topology of posets. We also realize a certain kind of Foulkes representation geometrically as the homology of real toric varieties.
