Orbifold pseudo-effective cones of toric stacks
Ratko Darda, Takehiko Yasuda
TL;DR
The paper determines the orbifold pseudo-effective cone for split toric stacks by formulating the orbifold Néron–Severi space to include twisted sectors and establishing a duality with the orbifold moving cone via stacks of stacky curves. The authors construct explicit generators for the orbifold cone in terms of torus-invariant divisors and twisted-sector contributions, and they adapt Payne’s base-locus method to the stacky setting to realize all necessary classes. A detailed construction of orbifold numerical classes of stacky curves, their localization, and the action of the stacky torus on twisted arcs underpins the main result. The outcome provides a concrete, computable description of $\ar{Eff}_{\mathrm{orb}}(\\mathcal{X})$ for split toric stacks, with implications for extending Batyrev–Manin-type conjectures to orbifold contexts.
Abstract
In this paper, we explicitly describe the orbifold pseudo-effective cone of a split toric stack.
