Classifying Fibers and Bases in Toric Hypersurface Calabi-Yau Threefolds
Fatima Abbasi, Richard Nally, Washington Taylor
We carry out a complete analysis of the toric elliptic and genus-one fibrations of all 474 million reflexive polytopes in the Kreuzer-Skarke database. Earlier work with Huang showe…

Statistics of Base Polytopes in F-theory
Washington Taylor, Yi-Nan Wang, Yihang Yu
We propose a new statistical ensemble of toric bases for elliptic Calabi-Yaus used in F-theory models, by focusing on only the convex hull of the base, i.e., the base polytope. Thi…
