This is an extended example of the study of mirror symmetry via log schemes and the discrete Legendre transform on affine manifolds, introduced by myself and Bernd Siebert in "Mirror Symmetry via Logarithmic Degeneration Data I" (math.AG/0309070). In this paper, I consider the construction as it applies to the Batyrev-…
In this paper we construct a family of complex structures on a complex flag manifold that converge to the real polarization coming from the Gelfand-Cetlin integrable system, in the sense that holomorphic sections of a prequantum line bundle converge to delta-function sections supported on the Bohr-Sommerfeld fibers. Ou…
We consider the metric space of all toric Kähler metrics on a compact toric manifold; when "looking at it from infinity" (following Gromov), we obtain the tangent cone at infinity, which is parametrized by equivalence classes of complete geodesics. In the present paper, we study the associated limit for the family of m…
We introduce the fibred toric varieties as equivariant CPr bundles over lower dimensional toric varieties. An equivalent characterization is that the natural morphisms on them degenerate to bundle projections in the context of variation of toric varieties as GIT quotients. Our main observation is that these…
In this paper we calculate fundamental groups (and some of their quotients) of complements of four toric varieties branch curves. For these calculations, we study properties and degenerations of these toric varieties and the braid monodromies of the branch curves in CP2. The fundamental groups related to th…
In this note, we prove that on polarized toric manifolds the relative K-stability with respect to Donaldson's toric degenerations is a necessary condition for the existence of Calabi's extremal metrics, and also we show that the modified K-energy is proper in the space of G0-invariant Kähler metrics for the case…

The interpretation, due to T. Mabuchi, of the classical Futaki invariant of Fano toric manifolds is extended to the case of the Generalized Futaki invariant, introduced by W. Ding and G. Tian, of almost Fano toric varieties. As an application it is shown that the real part of the Generalized Futaki invariant is positiv…
In this paper we study the relative Chow and K-stability of toric manifolds in the toric sense. First, we give a criterion for relative K-stability and instability of toric Fano manifolds in the toric sense. The reduction of relative Chow stability on toric manifolds will be investigated using the Hibert-Mumford cr…
We study the half-form Kaehler quantization of a smooth symplectic toric manifold (X,ω), such that [ω/2π]−c1(X)/2∈H2(X,Z) and is nonnegative. We define the half-form corrected quantization of (X,ω) to be given by holomorphic sections of a certain hermitian line bundle L→X with Ch…
Let Δ⊂Rn be an n-dimensional integral Delzant polytope. It is well-known that there exist the n-dimensional compact toric manifold XΔ and the very ample (C×)n-equivariant line bundle LΔ on XΔ associated with Δ. In the present paper, we give a necessary and sufficient …
Let P be a Delzant polytope. We show that the quantization of the corresponding toric manifold XP in toric Kähler polarizations and in the toric real polarization are related by analytic continuation of Hamiltonian flows evaluated at time t=−1s. We relate the quantization of XP in two different …
This article contains a detailed study, in the toric case, of the test configuration geodesic rays defined by Phong-Sturm. We show that the `Bergman approximations' of Phong-Sturm converge in C^1 to the geodesic ray and that the geodesic ray itself is C^{1,1} and no better. The \kahler metrics associated to the geodesi…
Positive holomorphic sectional curvature on rational surfaces is characterized by Kähler metrics.
problem Characterizing rational surfaces by the existence of a Kähler metric with positive holomorphic sectional curvature.
method Constructing Kähler metrics on projective manifolds obtained from toric manifolds.
result Every projective manifold obtained from a projective toric manifold by a finite sequence of blow-ups at points admits a Kähler metric with positive holomorphic sectional curvature.
We prove that the mirror map is trivial for the canonical formal families of Calabi-Yau varieties constructed by Gross and the second author. In other words, the natural coordinate in a canonical Calabi-Yau family is a canonical coordinate in the sense of Hodge theory. This implies that the higher weight periods direct…
This paper is the first arising from our project announced in math.AG/0211094, "Affine manifolds, log structures, and mirror symmetry." We aim to study mirror symmetry by studying the log structures of Illusie-Fontaine and Kato on degenerations of Calabi-Yau manifolds. The basic idea is that one can associate to certai…
Let X be a compact toric Kähler manifold with −KX nef. Let L⊂X be a regular fiber of the moment map of the Hamiltonian torus action on X. Fukaya-Oh-Ohta-Ono defined open Gromov-Witten (GW) invariants of X as virtual counts of holomorphic discs with Lagrangian boundary condition L. We prove a formula…
It is shown that any, possibly singular, Fano variety X admitting a Kahler-Einstein metric is K-polystable, thus confirming one direction of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture in the setting of Q-Fano varieties equipped with their anti-canonical polarization. The proof exploits convexity properties of the Ding functiona…
In this paper we introduce the "interpolation-degneration" strategy to study Kahler-Einstein metrics on a smooth Fano manifold with cone singularities along a smooth divisor that is proportional to the anti-canonical divisor. By "interpolation" we show the angles in (0,2π] that admit a conical Kahler-Einstein metric…
We introduce the cutting construction of possibly non-compact symplectic toric manifolds, in particular, toric symplectic cones that correspond to a weakly convex good cone. Since the symplectization of a toric contact manifold is a toric symplectic cone, we can also construct toric contact manifolds that correspond to…
