Abstract
We study actions of diagonalizable groups on toroidal schemes (i.e. logarithmically regular logarithmic schemes). In particular, we show that for so-called toroidal actions the quotient is again a toroidal scheme. Our main result constructs for an arbitrary action a canonical torification by an equivariant blowings up. This extends earlier results of Abramovich–de Jong, Abramovich–Karu–Matsuki–Włodarczyk, and Gabber in various aspects.
