I have to say, after watching the video, I had a good laugh at the automatic captions. At one point 'you' say: "cross this line out take the max 11 eggs your extreme ice x1 x2".
+Geoffrey Trang Employment. Having a job really cuts into free time. It's good though - tenure track at CUNY-Queensborough, so the channel and career are aligned.
Just to be clear: the capital N that you use for the subscript on T, for the toric variety, is the same as the small letter n indicating the dimension of the covering space C^n, right?
Great video - thanks! Why did you choose to present toric varieties as the topic of Basic Algebraic Geometry course? Why are they so interesting? Thanks :)
This is a great video. But it could be improved by putting some links to reference material in the videos description. It would be vastly improved if those references were NOT Mumford or Hartshorne. Fulton for example.
Cox, Little and Schenk is the big reference for toric varieties. IIRC one of them has a free pdf available. (I raise your Mumford/Hartshorne with EGA/SGA.)
Thanks a lot for this lecture!
You're welcome! - Bob

Ali Caglayan After a few hours of math, it all reads like that.
Congrats on getting tenure! Hope to see more graduate-level stuff on your channel.
abc75 Not tenured yet!
MathDoctorBob Whoops, it was tenure _track_. Sorry, I misread. :/ Really hope you'll get tenure.
Good to have you back, Bob!

What happened during your hiatus?
