This is what I get it to work.

1. Run

/usr/libexec/java_home -V

1. Identify version 8 of Java, and remove the others using a command like

rm -rf /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-9.0.1.jdk/

(with the version suitably changed; also you'll probably have to run this as sudo)

It turns out that JMol is incompatible with version 9, which I originally had. After getting rid of version 9, closing the shell session and restarting it, I am now able to plot 3d objects in Sagemath through JMol.

Thank you, Dan! Sorry for my late reply. This is indeed helpful. I meant "dual toric diagram" not "dual fan" (thanks for correcting me). What if I had to go backward (dual of dual toric diagram)? Would this method still work?

If you see https://arxiv.org/pdf/0706.1310.pdf, essentially what I want to do is generate either one of Figure 2.3 given the other.

I am learning basics of toric geometry as applied to physics. I would like to know if there's a way to visualize toric fans using Sagemath, and also draw dual toric diagrams.

For example, if I give explicit coordinates of vectors defining a fan, can I visualize the fan and also its dual toric fan using Sage?

I have found resources on the net about using Sage for toric varieties, but I am currently looking for answers to much simpler questions.

Thanks, Dan. I don't seem to have canvas3d; the graphics quality using tachyon is very poor for some reason: the figure appears dithered.

sage: from sage.interfaces.jmoldata import JmolData

sage: jdata = JmolData()

sage: jdata.is_jvm_available()

False

sage: import subprocess

sage: print subprocess.check_output(['java', '-version'], stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)

java version "9.0.1"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 9.0.1+11)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 9.0.1+11, mixed mode)

Thanks eric_g! This worked. But it launches a browser (Safari, in my case). Is there a way to get it to work like jmol would (i.e. without a browser)?

Hi,

I am a relative newbie to the Mac and Sage on the Mac. I tried to run the following code from the Sage tutorial on my Mac in the console mode of sage:

sage: x, y = var('x,y')

sage: plot3d(x^2 + y^2, (x,-2,2), (y,-2,2))

The error message I get is

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- RuntimeError
Traceback (most recent call last) <ipython-input-2-878191366deb> in <module>() ----> 1 plot3d(xInteger(2) + yInteger(2), (x,-Integer(2),Integer(2)), (y,-Integer(2),Integer(2)))

I believe I have the latest version of Java installed:

$ java --version java 9.0.1 Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 9.0.1+11) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 9.0.1+11, mixed mode)

Sage version

$ sage --version SageMath version 8.0, Release Date: 2017-07-21

I would appreciate any inputs and advice about how to fix this issue. Thanks in advance!
