Growth polynomial of the Associahedron graph ? (Is it approximately Gaussian ?)
Consider Associahedron, consider graph build from its vertices and edges. Choose some vertex. Let us count the number of vertices on distances $k$ from the selected vertex. Write a generating ...

Anchor sets for lattice polygons: Part I
Suppose $V=\{(x_1,y_1), (x_2,y_2),\dots,(x_v,y_v)\}$ is a vertex set of lattice points satisfying
$$0=x_1<x_2<\dots<x_v \qquad \text{and} \qquad y_1>y_2>\cdots>y_{v-1}>y_v=0.$$

Reference on the faces of the circulation polytope
On page 4 of Generating all vertices of a polyhedron is hard it is mentioned that the facial structure of the circulation polyhedron* is well understood. I am trying to find a reference for this.
I ...

The number of Hamiltonian circuits on a convex polytope embedded in $\mathbb{R}^N$
Recently I wondered whether there might be a natural topological complexity measure for convex polytopes embedded in $\mathbb{R}^N$. After some reflection it occurred to me that the number of distinct ...

Can we realize a graph as the skeleton of a polytope that has the same symmetries?
Given a graph $G$, a realization of $G$ as a polytope is a convex polytope $P\subseteq \Bbb R^n$ with $G$ as its 1-skeleton.
A realization $P\subseteq \Bbb R^n$ is said to realize the symmetries of $...

approximate diameter of polytopes in high dimensions
I just came across the following problem:
Let us consider the unit corner of the n-cube
$$
\Delta^n = \left\{(t_1,\cdots,t_n)\in\mathbb{R}^n\mid\sum_{i = 1}^{n}{t_i} \leq 1 \mbox{ and } t_i \ge 0 \...

Prove or disprove a claim about covering a polytope by convex polytopes in a certain way
Here is the claim:
Given a polytope $K$ in a unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^d$, there exists a universal constant $C(d)>0$ depending only on $d$ and a countable collection of convex polytopes $\{K_i\}_{...

Can we uniquely define a graph to have the topology of a polytope via proper edge length selection?
I'll ask you to consider a situation wherein one has a series of edges for a graph, $(e_1, e_2, ..., e_N) \in E$, each with a specifiable length $(l_1, l_2, ..., l_N) \in L$, and the goal is to insure ...
