We study the problem of counting lattice points of a polytope that are weighted by an Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of a family of parametric polytopes. As applications one can compute integrals and maximum values of such quasi-polynomials, as…
We investigate symmetric edge polytopes generated by Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graphs in a high-dimensional regime. These objects provide a natural and largely unexplored model of random lattice polytopes, in which geometric properties are…
In [Baumeister, H., Nill, Paffenholz, On permutation polytopes, Adv. Math. 222 (2009), 431-452 / arXiv:0709.1615] we conjectured a characterization of subgroups H of a permutation group G so that, on the level of permutation polytopes, P(H)…
In Lett. Math. Phys. 114, 54 (2024) and 115, 70 (2025), the author introduces what is presented as a novel method for determining whether a sequence of orthogonal polynomials is "classical", based solely on its initial recurrence…
Given a lattice polytope $P$ (with underlying lattice $\lo$), the universal counting function $\uu_P(\lo')=|P\cap \lo'|$ is defined on all lattices $\lo'$ containing $\lo$. Motivated by questions concerning lattice polytopes and the Ehrhart…
We present a new algorithm for computing the volume of an arbitrary matroid base polytope. We provide two applications of this approach: a relation between the volume of the base polytope of a matroid $\M$ and its relaxation $\M'$, and a…
Let $\rho$ be a metric on the set $X=\{1,2,\dots,n+1\}$. Consider the $n$-dimensional polytope of functions $f:X\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, which satisfy the conditions $f(n+1)=0$, $|f(x)-f(y)|\leq \rho(x,y)$. The question on classifying…
Let P be a simple lattice polytope. We define an action of the Hecke operators on E (P), the Ehrhart polynomial of P, and describe their effect on the coefficients of E (P). We also describe how the Brion-Vergne formula transforms under the…
This paper introduces the notion of an unravelled abstract regular polytope, and proves that $\SL_3(q) \rtimes <t>$, where $t$ is the transpose inverse automorphism of $\SL_3(q)$, possesses such polytopes for various congruences of $q$. A…
Recently there has been a renewed interest in an extension of the notion of orthogonal polynomials known as multiple orthogonal polynomials. This notion comes from simultaneous rational approximation (Hermite-Pade approximation) of a system…
For an integral convex polytope $\mathcal{P} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, we recall $L_\mathcal{P}(n)=|n\mathcal{P} \cap \mathbb{Z}^d|$ the Ehrhart polynomial of $\mathcal{P}$. Let $g_r(\mathcal{P})$ be the $r$th coefficients of…
We give an algorithm that constructs the Hasse diagram of the face lattice of a convex polytope P from its vertex-facet incidences in time O(min{n,m}*a*f), where n is the number of vertices, m is the number of facets, a is the number of…
We confirm a conjecture of Monical, Tokcan and Yong on a characterization of the lattice points in the Newton polytopes of key polynomials.
Over a decade ago De Loera, Haws and K\"oppe conjectured that Ehrhart polynomials of matroid polytopes have only positive coefficients and that the coefficients of the corresponding $h^*$-polynomials form a unimodal sequence. The first of…
Abstract polytopes are combinatorial objects that generalise geometric objects such as convex polytopes, maps on surfaces and tilings of the space. Chiral polytopes are those abstract polytopes that admit full combinatorial rotational…
Equivariant Ehrhart theory enumerates the lattice points in a polytope with respect to a group action. Answering a question of Stapledon, we describe the equivariant Ehrhart theory of the permutahedron, and we prove his Effectiveness…
We introduce a new family of orthogonal polynomials on the disk that has emerged in the context of wave propagation in layered media. Unlike known examples, the polynomials are orthogonal with respect to a measure all of whose even moments…
Even with the introduction of supercharacter theories, the representation theory of many unipotent groups remains mysterious. This paper constructs a family of supercharacter theories for normal pattern groups in a way that exhibit many of…
Matroids give rise to several natural constructions of polytopes. Inspired by this, we examine polytopes that arise from the signed circuits of an oriented matroid. We give the dimensions of these polytopes arising from graphical oriented…
A d-dimensional rational polytope P is a polytope whose vertices are located at the nodes of d-dimensional Z-lattice. Consider a number of points inside the inflated polytope (with coefficient of inflation k, k=1,2, 3...). The Ehrhart…
