In this article we present a formula for the plurigenera of minimal models of nondegenerate toric hypersurfaces, which is valid in any dimension and which expresses these invariants through lattice points on the Fine interior. Besides we consider other birational models of toric hypersurfaces and study their singularities from the point of view of the minimal model program. We show that the first irregularity q(Y ) of a minimal model of a toric hypersurface is always 0. Restricting to surfaces in toric 3-folds we compute the difference in the rank of the Picard group when switching between birational models.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
