Pick's theorem and the Todd class of a toric variety (Q1313382)

The interrelation between two formulas: a formula for the Todd class of a toric variety and a formula for the number of lattice points inside a lattice polyhedron, discovered by \textit{V. I. Danilov} [Russ. Math. Surv. 33, No. 2, 97--154 (1978); translation from Usp. Math. Nauk 33, No. 2(200), 85--134 (1978; Zbl 0425.14013)] and \textit{A. G. Khovanskii} [Funct. Anal. Appl. 11, 289--296 (1978); translation from Funkts. Anal. Prilozh. 11, No. 4, 56--64 (1977; Zbl 0445.14019)] is a source of many results both in algebraic geometry and combinatorics. In the paper under review the author proves a formula of Danilov type and, moreover, makes it more explicit using the residue theorem of P. Baum and R. Bott [\textit{M. F. Atiyah} and \textit{R. Bott}, Topology 23, 1--28 (1984; Zbl 0521.58025)]. He also shows the relation of these formulas to a classical theorem on the area of a convex plane polygon due to Pick.
