%0 Report %D 2010 %T Picard group of hypersurfaces in toric varieties %A Ugo Bruzzo %A Antonella Grassi %X We show that the usual sufficient criterion for a generic hypersurface in a smooth projective manifold to have the same Picard number as the ambient variety can be generalized to hypersurfaces in complete simplicial toric varieties. This sufficient condition is always satisfied by generic K3 surfaces embedded in Fano toric 3-folds. %G en_US %U http://hdl.handle.net/1963/4103 %1 301 %2 Mathematics %3 Mathematical Physics %$ Submitted by Andrea Wehrenfennig (andreaw@sissa.it) on 2010-11-17T08:32:53Z\\nNo. of bitstreams: 1\\nBruzzo_78FM.pdf: 196280 bytes, checksum: 4025c3d0687d1cf714b24bdff1e33568 (MD5)
