## Abstract Varieties With a Torus Action
8
+
Recall that our focus in this chapter is on abstract intersection theory: We discuss computations which manipulate collections of data
9
+
referred to as abstract varieties, and we interprete the results as applying to all (smooth projective complex) varieties sharing the data.
10
+
The tools presented in this section allow for more efficient computations in the case of varieties with a (split) torus action whose
11
+
fixed point set is finite. They are based on localization and a version of Bott's formula which is formulated in the language of
12
+
equivariant intersection theory. See [Dan14](@cite) and the references cited there.

Using Bott's formula in enumerative geometry goes back to [ES02](@cite). We quote from that paper:

> Many parameter spaces carry natural actions of algebraic tori, in particular those coming from projective enumerative problems. In 1967, Bott gave a residue formula that allows one to express the degree of certain zero-cycles on a smooth complete variety with an action of an algebraic torus in terms of local contributions supported on the components of the fixpoint set. These components tend to have much simpler structure than the whole space; indeed, in many interesting cases, including all the examples of the present paper, the fixpoints are actually isolated.

We represent an *abstract variety with a torus action* by specifying its dimension together with the fixed points of the action and, possibly, further data.

21
+
In order to work with a version of Bott's formula for orbifolds, it is allowed to specify multiplicities at the fixed points. See the section on Kontsevich moduli spaces.
22

23
+
An *abstract equivariant vector bundle under a torus action* is represented by its rank and its base variety, together with its localizations at the fixed points.

Recall that an equivariant vector bundle over a point is a representation of the group under consideration (in our case, a torus).
