Convex Bodies and Algebraic Geometry: An Introduction to the Theory of Toric Varieties
Overview & Synopsis
The theory of toric varieties (also called torus embeddings) describes a fascinating interplay between algebraic geometry and the geometry of convex figures in real affine spaces. This book is a unified up-to-date survey of the various results and interesting applications found since toric varieties were introduced in the early 1970's.
