Abstract
Smooth, compact toric varieties (SCTV) can admit a reduced structure group, and thus be suitable as internal manifolds in flux compactifications. We review the construction of SU(3) structures on three‐dimensional SCTV proposed in [1]. We summarise the techniques used to construct the reduced structure group and read off the torsion classes. Some examples illustrate the proposed method.Keywords
