Does Hoffman constant keep the same after a very tiny perturbation on the polyhedron such that the bases are even unchanegd?
Suppose that $P$ is a polyhedron represented by
$$P:=\{x \in \mathbb{R}^n: A x \le b \} \text{ for }A \in \mathbb{R}^{m\times n},\ b \in \mathbb{R}^m,$$
and $P$ contains interior points. Moreover, the ...

Finding a point in the relative interior of the convex hull of a set of integer-valued vectors
Let $X \subset \mathbb{Z}^n$ be the set of integer-valued vectors satisfying a system of linear constraints. We can suppose that $X$ is the set of integral points in a given polyhydral set $Y \subset \...

Can convex combinations of indicator functions for pairwise non-disjoint sets unordered by inclusion dominate one another?
Let $N$ be a finite subset of the naturals. Let $P$ be a set of subsets of $N$ such that:
1) $P\neq \varnothing$,
2) $\forall x\in P, |x| >1$,
3) $\forall x,y\in P,$ if $x\neq y$, then $x\not\...

Efficiently Generating the Convex Hulls of Two Polytopes and Counting Faces
Suppose you have two polytopes $P_1, P_2 \in \Bbb{R}^n$ given by
$$ P_1 = \lbrace x: A_1 x \le b_1\rbrace$$
$$ P_2 = \lbrace x: A_2 x \le b_2\rbrace $$
I wish to find their convex hull, that is a ...

Finding optimal linear transformation for intersection of convex polytopes
I previously posted this on MathSE and am now trying here.
I have the following situation, as shown in the following diagram:
$W=\{w_i\}_{i=1..|W|}$ is a set of vertices (show in diagram in blue) ...

Computation of extreme rays of rational polyhedral cones - Hemmecke's project and lift algorithm
I am working on an implementation of Raymond Hemmecke's algorithm for finding generating sets of cones: http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0203105
Unfortunately I am struggling to make the algorithm work on ...

Examples of Polyhedra with Large Shadows
Let $P \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ be a polyhedron described by $\mathcal{O}(n^{c_1})$ inequalities, where $c_1$ is a constant. Moreover, let $M\colon P \to \mathbb{R}^2$ be a linear mapping. I'm looking ...

Has this generalization of a determinant (assigning multiplicities to the rows) been studied?
I'm working on some questions in tropical geometry, and my problem led me to create the following generalization of a determinant:
Let $A$ be an $m \times n$ matrix with $m \le n$, and positive ...
