Toric foliated minimal model program (Q6169101)

One of the fundamental problem in the theory of birational geometry of foliations is to analyze and classify foliations. Much of the work has been done in the case of surface and threefolds. \textit{M. McQuillan} [Pure Appl. Math. Q. 4, No. 3, 877--1012 (2008; Zbl 1166.14010)] and \textit{M. Brunella} [Birational geometry of foliations. Reprint of the 2000 edition with new results. Cham: Springer (2015; Zbl 1310.14002)] have classified rank one foliation on surfaces in terms of the numerical Kodaira dimension. Their results have been generalized to rank one foliations on threefolds by \textit{P. Cascini} and \textit{C. Spicer} [``On the MMP for rank one foliations on threefolds'', Preprint, \url{arXiv:2012.11433}]. They have also proved the existence of minimal model program for co-rank one foliations on threefolds [\textit{P. Cascini} and \textit{C. Spicer}, Invent. Math. 225, No. 2, 603--690 (2021; Zbl 1492.14025)]. In case of higher dimensional varieties, one of the foundational results is due to Spicer, who proved the toric foliated Minimal Model Program in the case of co-rank one [\textit{C. Spicer}, Compos. Math. 156, No. 1, 1--38 (2020; Zbl 1428.14025)]. The goal of the present article is to generalize Spicer's result, more precisely, to prove the toric foliated minimal model program for any rank on \(\mathbb Q\)-factorial toric varieties. One of the key ingredient used by the author is Klyachko's combinatorial description of torus equivariant sheaves on toric varieties in terms of multifiltrations of vector spaces. The author describes toric foliations and their singularities in terms of the geometry of the fan of the toric variety (Theorem 0.1, Theorem 0.2). The author then proves the cone theorem for toric foliations of any rank (Theorem 0..3). Finally, the author proves that the toric foliated Minimal Model Program exists, extending Spicer's results (Theorem 0.4).
