Deformations of smooth complete toric varieties: obstructions and the cup product

Nathan Ilten and Charles Turo

Vol. 14 (2020), No. 4, 907–926
Abstract

Let X be a complete -factorial toric variety. We explicitly describe the space H2(X,𝒯X) and the cup product map H1(X,𝒯X) × H1(X,𝒯X) H2(X,𝒯X) in combinatorial terms. Using this, we give an example of a smooth projective toric threefold for which the cup product map does not vanish, showing that in general, smooth complete toric varieties may have obstructed deformations.
