Log structures (K. Kato, Fontaine–Illusie)

a log structure is a monoid homomorphism α : M → OX such that α∗O× → O× is an isomorphism.

Log structures (K. Kato, Fontaine–Illusie)

a log structure is a monoid homomorphism α : M → OX such that α∗O× → O× is an isomorphism. Morphisms are given by natural commutative diagrams. . . A key example is the log structure associated to an open U ⊂ X, where M = OX ∩ O×

When X is a toric variety and U the torus this is a prototypical example of a log smooth structure. In this case the monoid is associated to the regular monomials, with O× thrown in.

When X is a toric variety and U the torus this is a prototypical example of a log smooth structure. In this case the monoid is associated to the regular monomials, with O× thrown in. In general X is log smooth if it is ´ etale locally toric. A morphism X → Y is log smooth if it is ´ etale locally a base change

Log curves

A log curve is a reduced 1-dimensional fiber of a flat log smooth morphism.

  • F. Kato showed that these are the same as nodal marked curves, with

“the natural” log structure.

The fiber over u ∈ Σ(S) is a tropical curve: Components give vertices, nodes give edges, and marked points give infinite legs. A stable log map gives Σ(C) → Σ(X), a family of tropical curves in Σ(X).
