Let \({\mathcal P} \subset \mathbb{R}^d\) be a rational convex polytope of dimension \(d\) and \(\Delta\) a triangulation (which consists of rectilinear simplices) of the boundary \(\partial {\mathcal P}\) of \({\mathcal P}\). Suppose that the origin of \(\mathbb{R}^d\) is contained in the interior \({\mathcal P}-\partial {\mathcal P}\) of \({\mathcal P}\) and that each vertex of \(\Delta\) lies in \(\mathbb{Q}^d\). Then we can construct the complete simplicial fan \({\mathcal F} (\Delta)\) [cf. \textit{V. I. Danilov}, Russ. Math. Surv. 33, No. 2, 97-154 (1978); translation from Usp. Mat. Nauk 33, No. 2(200), 85-134 (1978; Zbl 0425.14013) (5.1)] via \(\Delta\) in the obvious way. We write \(\chi (\Delta)= \chi ({\mathcal F} (\Delta))\) for the toric variety associated with \({\mathcal F} (\Delta)\). We remark that \(\chi ({\mathcal F} (\Delta))\) is not necessarily projective, and the purpose of this paper is to show that the toric variety arising from a canonical triangulation of an order polytope [cf. \textit{R. P. Stanley}, Discrete Comput. Geom. 1, 9-23 (1986; Zbl 0595.52008), p. 17] is projective. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0868.00046].
