This talk will be about brick varieties which are the general fibers of Bott-Samelson maps. I will describe the moment polytopes of the brick varieties and describe some instances in which these varieties are toric.

Title: Brick varieties and the toric variety of the associahedron

Speaker: Laura Escobar (UIUC)

Abstract: Bott-Samelson varieties are twisted products of CP^1's with a map into G/B. This talk will be about brick varieties which are the general fibers of Bott-Samelson maps. I will describe the moment polytopes of the brick varieties and describe some instances in which these varieties are toric. In particular, I will give a description of the toric variety of the associahedron.
