Jul 25, 2010 at 2:57 | comment | added | Vinayak Pathak | I am talking about the generalization of the Czaszar polyhedron. It's a polyhedron whose skeleton is $K_7$. For n = 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, there cannot be a polyhedron whose skeleton is $K_n$, which can be shown using the Euler characteristic. So the next candidate is $K_12$, and that's still open. I had assumed that 3-polytopes are the same as polyhedra. But it seems they are the same as "convex" polyhedra? | |
Jul 25, 2010 at 1:18 | comment | added | Gil Kalai | Graphs of 3-polytopes are planar so even $K_5$ cannot be realized as the graph of a 3-polytope. you must mean something else. | |
Jul 24, 2010 at 17:53 | comment | added | Vinayak Pathak | I meant $K_{12}$. | |
Jul 24, 2010 at 17:52 | comment | added | Vinayak Pathak | I have heard that it's still not known if the complete graph on 12 vertices can be realized as the 1-skeleton of a 3-polytope. But according to what you have said, it should have been decidable. So can't we just use Tarski's algorithm once on $K_12$ and check? Or is the input size really really big for this case? | |
