An equivariant Riemann-Roch theorem for complete, simplicial toric varieties.

Introduction. The theory of toric varieties establishes a now classical connection between algebraic geometry and convex polytopes. In particular, äs observed by Danilov in the seventies, finding a closed formula for the Todd class of complete toric varieties would have important consequences for enumeration of lattice points in convex lattice polytopes. Since then, a number of such formulas have been proposed; see [M], [Pl], [P2] The Todd class of complete simplicial toric varieties is computed in [G-G-K], using the Riemann-Roch formula of T. Kawasaki [Ka].
