Relative rounding in toric and logarithmic geometry

Chikara Nakayama and Arthur Ogus

Geometry & Topology 14 (2010) 2189–2241
Abstract

We show that the introduction of polar coordinates in toric geometry smoothes a wide class of equivariant mappings, rendering them locally trivial in the topological category. As a consequence, we show that the Betti realization of a smooth proper and exact mapping of log analytic spaces is a topological fibration, whose fibers are orientable manifolds (possibly with boundary). This turns out to be true even for certain noncoherent log structures, including some families familiar from mirror symmetry. The moment mapping plays a key role in our proof.
