We define a new cutting plane closure for pure integer programs called the two-halfspace closure. It is a natural generalization of the well-known Chv\'atal-Gomory closure. We prove that the two-halfspace closure is polyhedral. We also…
Regarding non-unique factorization of integer-valued polynomials over a discrete valuation domain $(R,M)$ with finite residue field, it is known that there exist absolutely irreducible elements, that is, irreducible elements all of whose…
The present work investigates regular, semiregular, and chiral polytopes of any rank $d\geq 3$, whose automorphism groups are 2-groups. There is a large variety of rather small finite regular or alternating semiregular polytopes with…
We construct a model in which the splitting number is large and every ultrafilter has a small subset with no pseudo-intersection.
We consider, for complete bipartite graphs, the convex hulls of characteristic vectors of all matchings, extended by a binary entry indicating whether the matching contains two specific edges. These polytopes are associated to the quadratic…
A polytope $D$ whose vertices belong to a lattice of rank $d$ is Delaunay if there is a circumscribing $d$-dimensional ellipsoid, $E$, with interior free of lattice points so that the vertices of $D$ lie on $E$. If in addition, the…
Triangulations of a product of two simplices and, more generally, of root polytopes are closely related to Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky's theory of discriminants, to tropical geometry, tropical oriented matroids, and to generalized…
Self-polar polytopes are convex polytopes that are equal to an orthogonal transformation of their polar sets. These polytopes were first studied by Lov\'{a}sz as a means of establishing the chromatic number of distance graphs on spheres,…
A permutation polytope is the convex hull of a group of permutation matrices. In this paper we investigate the combinatorics of permutation polytopes and their faces. As applications we completely classify permutation polytopes in…
An $S$-hypersimplex for $S \subseteq \{0,1, \dots,d\}$ is the convex hull of all $0/1$-vectors of length $d$ with coordinate sum in $S$. These polytopes generalize the classical hypersimplices as well as cubes, crosspolytopes, and…
The simple symplectic triple systems over the real numbers are classified up to isomorphism, and linear models of all of them are provided. Besides the split cases, one for each complex simple Lie algebra, there are two kinds of non-split…
We are presenting proofs of fundamental results related to homotopy idempotents, proofs that are sufficiently simple so that even the author can understand them. The first one is that homotopy idempotents in the category of pointed…
The paper deals with ring extensions $R\subseteq S$ and their lattices $[R,S]$ of subextensions and is mainly devoted to FCP extensions (extensions whose lattices are Artinian and Noetherian). The object of the paper is the introduction and…
We study the structures of arbitrary split Leibniz triple systems. By developing techniques of connections of roots for this kind of triple systems, under certain conditions, in the case of $T$ being of maximal length, the simplicity of the…
A triangulation of a punctured or pinched surface is irreducible if no edge can be shrunk without producing multiple edges or changing the topological type of the surface. The finiteness of the set of (non-isomorphic) irreducible…
In this paper, the existence of perfect and quasi-perfect splitter sets in finite abelian groups is studied, motivated by their application in coding theory for flash memory storage. For perfect splitter sets we view them as splittings of…
We define complete stable pairs on a smooth projective variety, and construct their moduli space. These moduli spaces have natural morphisms to the moduli of stable pairs and Quot-schemes. As an example, we show that the moduli of complete…
In this paper, we discuss the motivic stable homotopy type of abelian varieties. For an abelian variety over a perfect field $k$ with a rational point, it always splits off a top-dimensional cell in motivic stable homotopy category…
Recently, cutting planes derived from maximal lattice-free convex sets have been studied intensively by the integer programming community. An important question in this research area has been to decide whether the closures associated with…
We define the excess degree $\xi(P)$ of a $d$-polytope $P$ as $2f_1-df_0$, where $f_0$ and $f_1$ denote the number of vertices and edges, respectively. This parameter measures how much $P$ deviates from being simple. It turns out that the…
