Abstract:
Varieties admitting Frobenius splittings exhibit very nice properties. For example, many nice properties of toric varieties can be deduced from the fact that they are Frobenius split. Varieties admitting a diagonal splitting exhibit even nicer properties. In this talk, I will give an overview over the consequences of the existence of such splittings and then discuss criteria for toric varieties to be diagonally split.
