The importance of cohomology theory in the study of symplectic and Hamiltonian torus actions has been recognized for a long time. The usefulness of cohomology theory in the field continues today, significantly in the theory of toric varieties. One of the major aims of this book is to illustrate the cohomological methods used in the study of symplectic and Hamiltonian torus actions and to present some recent results. The other aspect of this book is to present the ...
