For a toric divisor on a normal split toric variety, define the rational polyhedron
Its integral points index the torus character basis of global sections of the divisorial sheaf . If is a Cartier divisor, this is an invertible sheaf. For a general Weil divisor it is a rank-one reflexive sheaf.
The polyhedron can be unbounded. For affine space and , its inequality is , and the integral points give the basis of . If the toric fan is complete, the recession toric cone is zero, so a nonempty is bounded. Even then its vertices need not be integral for a non-Cartier Weil divisor. [ref]
