Convex polytopes are the convex hulls of a finite set of points in Euclidean spaces. They have rich combinatorial, arithmetic, and metrical theory, and are related to toric varieties and to linear programming

Rational inscribed realization of the regular dodecahedron

An example Yes, here is a list of rational coordinates lying on the unit sphere, the convex hull of which is combinatorially equivalent to a regular dodecahedron. This polyhedron is invariant under r …

Edges of the contact polytope of the Leech lattice

Using the unimodular scaling of the Leech lattice, the length of each minimal vector is $\sqrt{4}$. Fixing a particular minimal vector $u$, the remaining minimal vectors $v$ are: 1 vector $v$ with $\ …

Is a polytope that has in-spheres for faces of all dimensions already regular?

This is true in all dimensions, and can be proved by induction (on $d$) applied to the following (slightly stronger) hypothesis: Theorem: If $P$ is a convex $d$-polytope with $k$-in-spheres for all $ …

Unusual symmetries of the Cayley-Menger determinant for the volume of tetrahedra

The following comment in the question intrigued me: In fact, it's possible to show that the linear symmetries of $\mathbb{R}^6$ that preserve the Cayley-Menger determinant form the Weyl group $D_6$, …
