On a smooth compactification of PSL(n, C)/T

Let $T$ be a maximal torus of ${\rm PSL}(n, \mathbb C)$. For $n\,\geq\, 4$, we construct a smooth compactification of ${\rm PSL}(n, \mathbb C)/T$ as a geometric invariant theoretic quotient of the wonderful compactification $\overline{{\rm PSL}(n, \mathbb C)}$ for a suitable choice of $T$--linearized ample line bundle on $\overline{{\rm PSL}(n, \mathbb C)}$. We also prove that the connected component, containing the identity element, of the automorphism group of this compactification of ${\rm PSL}(n, \mathbb C)/T$ is ${\rm PSL}(n, \mathbb C)$ itself.
