A counterexample to the maximality of toric varieties
Abstract
Description
We present a counterexample to the conjecture of Bihan, Franz, McCrory, and van Hamel concerning the maximality of toric varieties. There exists a six dimensional projective toric variety X with the sum of the mod 2 Betti numbers of X(R) strictly less than the sum of the mod 2 Betti numbers of X(C).
