Abstract: Let $mathcal{A}_1,ldots,mathcal{A}_k$ be finite sets in $mathbb{Z}^n$ and let $Ysubset(mathbb{C}^{\ast }{)}^n$ be an algebraic variety defined by a system of equations [ f_1 = ldots = f_k = 0, ] where $f_1,ldots,f_k$ are Laurent polynomials with supports in $mathcal{A}_1,ldots,mathcal{A}_k$. Assuming that $f_1,ldots,f_k$ are sufficiently generic, the Newton polyhedron theory computes discrete invariants of $Y$ in terms of the Newton polyhedra of $f_1,ldots,f_k$. It may appear that the generic system with fixed supports $mathcal{A}_1,ldots,mathcal{A}_k$ is inconsistent. In this paper, we compute discrete invariants of algebraic varieties defined by system of equations which are generic in the set of consistent system with support in $mathcal{A}_1,ldots,mathcal{A}_k$ by reducing the question to the Newton polyhedra theory. Unlike the classical situation, not only the Newton polyhedra of $f_1,dots,f_k$, but also the supports $mathcal{A}_1,ldots,mathcal{A}_k$ themselves appear in the answers.
