Summary: | Novel nonstandard techniques for the computation of
cohomology classes on toric varieties are summarized. After an introduction of the basic definitions and properties of toric geometry, we discuss a
specific computational algorithm for the determination of the dimension of
line-bundle-valued cohomology groups on toric varieties. Applications to the computation of chiral massless matter spectra in string compactifications are discussed, and using the software package cohomCalg, its utility
is highlighted on a new target space dual pair of
