Complex torus, its good compactifications and the ring of conditions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Let $X$ be an algebraic subvariety in $(\mathbb{C}^²)^n$. According to the good compactifification theorem there is a complete toric variety $M \supset (\mathbb{C}^²)^n$ such that the closure of $X$ in $M$ does not intersect orbits in $M$ of codimension bigger than dim$_\mathbb{C} X$. All proofs of this theorem I met in literature are rather involved. The ring of conditions of $(\mathbb{C}^²)^n$ was introduced by De Concini and Procesi in 1980-th. It is a version of intersection theory for algebraic cycles in $(\mathbb{C}^²)^n$. Its construction is based on the good compactification theorem. Recently two nice geometric descriptions of this ring were found. Tropical geometry provides the first description. The second one can be formulated in terms of volume function on the cone of convex polyhedra with integral vertices in $\mathbb{R}^n$. These descriptions are unified by the theory of toric varieties. I am going to discuss these descriptions of the ring of conditions and to present a new version of the good compactification theorem. This version is stronger that the usual one and its proof is elementary.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
