We investigate toric GLSMs as models for tachyon condensation in type IIstrings on space-time non-supersymmetric orbifold singularities. The A-modelcorrelators in these theories satisfy a set of relations related to thetopology of the resolved orbifold. Using these relations we compute thecorrelators and find a non-trivial chiral ring in the IR, which we interpret assupported on isolated Coulomb vacua of the theory.Comment: 34 pages, 5 figures with xy-pic. Several errors corrected. Conjectured form for the correlators now agrees with all tested case
