This repostitory contains command-line utilities which are meant to simplify certain computations involving toric varieties. As written, these utitilities are meant to be run a linux machine though I assume they work with minor modifications on other systems.

n-dimensional projective toric varieties are mathematical objects that are highly symmetric. As such, many computations simplify to computations involving convex polytopes in n real dimensions. This repository only considers 2-dimensional varieties at the moment, meaning that main object of study are convex polytopes in the plane.

The program relations.py computes the necessary information for the projective embedding coming from a toric polytope.

The program latticeGenerator.py simply prints the lattice points corresponding to polytopes of different sizes coming from either P^2 or P^2 blown up at one point (the first Hirzebruch surface). It is merely a convenient helper function to see a family of possible embeddings from relations.py.

There are other programs of varying completeness in the src/ directory. If you're curious, look around, but beware of any dragons you may find.
