The geometry of Frobenius on toric varieties
Abstract
We give a geometric description of the positivity of the Frobenius-trace kernel on a $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial projective toric variety. To do so, we define its Frobenius support as well as the notions of $F$-effectiveness for divisors and $1$-cycles. As it turns out, the interaction of the corresponding cone of $F$-effective curves with the Mori cone of curves reflects the type of extremal Mori contractions that the variety can undergo. As a corollary, we obtain that the Frobenius-trace kernel is ample if and only if the Picard rank is $1$.
