Number of Hyper-cube cuts
Here is some handwaving which suggests that the growth rate is faster than polynomial.
For any cut of a d-cube, we can pair that with 2^d cuts of a parallel d-cube to get at least 2^d many cuts of a …

Vertex-transitive polytopes in any dimension with any number of vertices?
For v prime, I don't know. For v even, and d=3, one can take a regular polygonal prism. I can think of toriodal versions for odd composite v, but I am unsure they are vertex transitive. I can go to …

Covering a unit ball with balls half the radius
Here is an idea which should generalize to dimensions 2 and greater. I will start with dimension 2.
Let us place a circle of radius 1/2 in the center of the radius 1 ball. We will place most, if n …

I will go out on a limb and pretend I understand the question and suggest the following for an answer.
Mark's example of 1x2 bricks in two dimensions can be modified to use 1x1 bricks, perhaps at th …
