Radiant toric varieties and unipotent group actions

Abstract

We consider complete toric varieties $X$ such that a maximal unipotent subgroup $U$ of the automorphism group $\text{Aut}(X)$ acts on $X$ with an open orbit. It turns out that such varieties can be characterized by several remarkable properties. We study the set of Demazure roots of the corresponding complete fan, describe the structure of a maximal unipotent subgroup $U$ in $\text{Aut}(X)$, and find all regular subgroups in $U$ that act on $X$ with an open orbit.
