Abstract: We study the structure of rational Picard groups of hypersurfaces of toric varieties. By using the fan structure associated to the ambient toric variety, an explicit basis of the Picard group is described by certain combinatorial data. We shall also discuss the application to Calabi-Yau spaces.

Review text

The author studies the rational Picard group of in general not ample hypersurfaces in toric varieties. For the toric varieties themselves, Cox's construction of the homogeneous coordinate ring is used. Afterwards, one obtains information about the hypersurface via studying the cohomological behavior of the embedding map as done by \textit{V. I. Danilov} and \textit{A. G. Khovanskij} [Math. USSR, Izv. 29, 279-298 (1987); translation from Izv. Akad. Nauk SSSR, Ser. Mat. 50, No. 5, 925-945 (1986; Zbl 0669.14012)]. Finally, as an application, Roan considers the special case of CY hypersurfaces (Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces) in toric Fano varieties.
