Lattice paths in polytopes

Let $P$ be a polytope in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Let $A_ix = b_i$ be the defining equations of its codimension $1$ faces. Is there an algorithm or some kind of criterion to decide if the lattice points inside ...

Lattice points inside a (n-dimensional) tetrahedron

Hi, overflowers. I was interested in a sharp lower bound for the number of lattice points (say, integral lattice points) inside the tetrahedron defined by the coordinate hyperplanes and $x_1/a_1+...+...

maximizing number of lattice points with bounded diameter

Suppose I have a lattice $L$ that's just $\mathbb{Z}^k$ but scaled in every coordinate by some (potentially different) real numbers. Now I want to construct a finite set of lattice points $S \subset L$...

Lattice points in regular simplex

Suppose we are given a regular (closed) simplex $S$ in a vector space $V$ of dimension $n$, whose vertices have integer values. Then for a lattice $L$, is there a sufficient criterion, for $S$ to ...

Versions of Helly's Theorem for Unbounded Parallelpipeds

I'm studying Frobenius splitting of toric varieties based on Sam Payne's characterization of Frobenius splitting ("Frobenius splittings of toric varieties" (2008)) and I came across a sort of Helly's ...

Can computers take uniform samples from a polytope?

For each $r \in \mathbb N $ write $\mathbb Z/ 10^r = \{a/10^r: a \in \mathbb Z\}$ and $P(r)$ for the lattice $(\mathbb Z/10^r)^N \subset \mathbb R^N$. Suppose the plane $P \subset \mathbb R^N$ is ...

Barnes-Wall lattices’ contact polytopes

The contact polytopes of the Barnes-Wall lattices in 1, 2, 4, and 8 dimensions are all uniform polytopes. Is this true in any higher number of dimensions?

16-cell honeycomb (4D tiling by cross-polytopes)

A 4-dimensional cross-polytope (also called 16-cell) is a regular polytope whose vertices are all permutations of $(\pm1,0,0,0)$. It is known that this body tiles the space $\mathbb{R}^4$ by ...
