We investigate the problem of carving an $n$-face triangulated three-dimensional polytope using a tool to make cuts modelled by either a half-plane or sweeps from an infinite ray. In the case of half-planes cuts, we present a deterministic…

One may associate several frames to a given polytope, such as its collection of vertices, edges, or facet normal vectors. In this note, we use these frames to generate geometric inequalities for the simplex in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and polytopes…
