Abstract: In this article we study the equivariant elliptic cohomology of complex toric varieties. We prove a partial reconstruction theorem showing that equivariant elliptic cohomology encodes considerable non-trivial information on the equivariant 1-skeleton of a toric variety X (although it stops short of being a complete invariant of its GKM graphs). Elliptic cohomology is supposed to encode higher categorical geometric data, and proposals have been made linking elliptic cocycles to categorified bundles. In particular, contrary to ordinary cohomology and K-theory, elliptic cohomology is expected not to be a derived invariant of algebraic varieties. Our second main result is to verify this prediction by showing that there exist pairs of equivariantly derived equivalent toric varieties with non-isomorphic equivariant elliptic cohomology.
