Chow Quotients of Toric Varieties as Moduli of Stable Log Maps
arXiv:1201.3406
Abstract
Let be a projective normal toric variety and a rank one subtorus of the defining torus of . We show that the normalization of the Chow quotient , in the sense of Kapranov-Sturmfels-Zelevinsky, coarsely represents the moduli space of stable log maps to with discrete data given by .
