Invariant subvarieties of toric varieties which are local complete intersections (Q1113968)

In this paper we characterize invariant subvarieties of torus embeddings which are local complete intersections in terms of geometry of convex polyhedral cones. \textit{M.-N. Ishida} [Tohôku Math. J., II. Ser. 32, 111-146 (1980; Zbl 0454.14021)] determined those which are Gorenstein. His result is used in our proof. It should be noted that the author [Tohôku Math. J., II. Ser. 38, 85-98 (1986; Zbl 0604.14044)] has already determined toric varieties themselves which are local complete intersections.
