Title: Algebraic Tori in the Complement of Quartic Surfaces


Abstract: Log Calabi-Yau pairs can be thought of as generalizations of Calabi-Yau varieties. Previously Ducat showed that all coregularity 0 log Calabi-Yau pairs $(\mathbb{P}^3,S)$ are crepant birational to a toric model. A stronger property to ask for is for the complement of $S$ to contain a dense algebraic torus. In that case, we say the pair $(\mathbb{P}^3,S)$ is of Cluster type.


In this talk we will show a full classification of coregularity zero, slc, reducible quartic surface for which their complements contain a dense algebraic torus. Along the way we will talk about relative cluster type pairs. We will finish by showing some partial results in the case of irreducible quartic surfaces.
