Complete non-singular toric varieties with Picard number 4 (2504.18134v1)

Abstract: We classify all complete non-singular toric varieties with Picard number four via a combinatorial framework based on fanlike simplicial spheres and characteristic maps. This classification yields $59$ fanlike seeds with Picard number four, along with all toric manifolds supported by them. As a consequence, we resolve a conjecture of Gretenkort, Kleinschmidt, and Sturmfels by presenting the first known examples of toric manifolds supported by neighborly polytopes. We also answer a question of Batyrev concerning minimal non-faces of such spheres.
