- Which, in any of several technical senses, admits a high degree of symmetry, allowing combinatorial methods to be used in its study.
“The study of toric varieties is a wonderful part of algebraic geometry. There are elegant theorems and deep connections with polytopes, polyhedra, combinatorics, commutative algebra, symplectic geomet”
- Containing an algebraic torus as a dense subset, such that the group action of the torus on itself extends to the whole space; or, the embedding map taking the torus into the space. See Toric variety on Wikipedia.Wikipedia
- (Narrowly) A compact smooth toric variety. (Broadly) Quasitoric: a closed, real, even-dimensional smooth manifold equipped with an effective, smooth action by an algebraic torus whose orbits are simple complex polytopes and such that the action is locally the same as a faithful real representation o…
- Any of several generalizations of the notion of toric varieties to stacks: the stack quotient of a toric variety by its torus; the stack quotient of a toric variety by a subgroup of its torus.
- Generated by differences of monomials.
- A particular topological quantum error correcting code; see Toric code on Wikipedia.Wikipedia
