Gotzmann's persistence theorem for smooth projective toric varieties

Gotzmann's regularity and persistence theorems provide tools which allow us to find explicit equations for the Hilbert scheme Hilb_P(P^n). A natural next step is to generalise these results to the multigraded Hilbert scheme Hilb_P(X) of a smooth projective toric variety X. In 2003 Maclagan and Smith generalise Gotzmann's regularity theorem to this case. We present new persistence type results for the product of two projective spaces, and time permitting discuss how these may be applied to a more general smooth projective toric variety.
