    Mori dream spaces were introduced in [\textit{Y. Hu} and \textit{S. Keel}, Mich. Math. J. 48, 331--348 (2000; Zbl 1077.14554)]. From the author's introduction: They ``showed that a Mori dream space \(X\) always embeds into a toric variety \(W\) in such a way that the combinatorics of \(W\) describes much of the brational geometry of \(X\). In this paper we give simple criteria for when embeddings between Mori dream spaces behave this way, and an explicit example of a nontrivial such embedding for a nontrivial Pezzo surface.''
