Résumé

Several rigidity problems in toric topology are addressed in the survey paper by the second and third authors, “Classification Problems of Toric Manifolds via Topology” (in Toric Topology, Am. Math. Soc., Providence, RI, 2008, pp. 273–286). In the present paper, we survey the results on those problems including recent developments.
