We describe algorithms which address two classical problems in lattice geometry: the lattice covering and the simultaneous lattice packing-covering problem. Theoretically our algorithms solve the two problems in any fixed dimension d in the…
In 1968, Golomb and Welch conjectured that there is no perfect Lee codes with radius $r\ge2$ and dimension $n\ge3$. A diameter perfect code is a natural generalization of the perfect code. In 2011, Etzion (IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory,…
A Delaunay decomposition is a cell decomposition in R^d for which each cell is inscribed in a Euclidean ball which is empty of all other vertices. This article introduces a generalization of the Delaunay decomposition in which the Euclidean…
We show that any planar straight line graph (PSLG) with $n$ vertices has a conforming triangulation by $O(n^{2.5})$ nonobtuse triangles (all angles $\leq 90^\circ$), answering the question of whether any polynomial bound exists. A nonobtuse…
The maximal index of a Euclidean lattice L of dimension n is the maximal index of the sub-lattices of L spanned by n independent minimal vectors of L. In this paper, we prove that a perfect lattice of maximal index two not provided by a…
Finding a good bound on the maximal edge diameter $\Delta(d,n)$ of a polytope in terms of its dimension $d$ and the number of its facets $n$ is one of the basic open questions in polytope theory \cite{BG}. Although some bounds are known,…
A polytope in a finite-dimensional normed space is subequilateral if the length in the norm of each of its edges equals its diameter. Subequilateral polytopes occur in the study of two unrelated subjects: surface energy minimizing cones and…
We prove that if a complete connected $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ has radial sectional curvature at a base point $p\in M$ bounded from below by the radial curvature function of a two-sphere of revolution $\widetilde M$ belonging…
Let C be a compact and convex set in the plane that contains the origin in its interior, and let S be a finite set of points in the plane. The Delaunay graph DG_C(S) of S is defined to be the dual of the Voronoi diagram of S with respect to…
It is a well-known fact that, under mild sampling conditions, the restricted Delaunay triangulation provides good topological approximations of 1- and 2-manifolds. We show that this is not the case for higher-dimensional manifolds, even…
Finding the exact spanning ratio of a Delaunay graph has been one of the longstanding open problems in Computational Geometry. Currently there are only four convex shapes for which the exact spanning ratio of their Delaunay graph is known:…
Santos' construction of counter-examples to the Hirsch Conjecture (2012) is based on the existence of prismatoids of dimension d of width greater than d. Santos, Stephen and Thomas (2012) have shown that this cannot occur in $d \le 4$.…
The Fine interior $F(P)$ of a $d$-dimensional lattice polytope $P \subset {\Bbb R}^d$ is the set of all points $y \in P$ having integral distance at least $1$ to any integral supporting hyperplane of $P$. We call a lattice polytope…
We extend White's classification of empty tetrahedra to the complete classification of lattice $3$-polytopes with five lattice points, showing that, apart from infinitely many of width one, there are exactly nine equivalence classes of them…
The purpose of this paper is to study convex bodies $C$ for which there exists no convex body $C^\prime\subsetneq C$ of the same lattice width. Such bodies shall be called ``lattice reduced'', and they occur naturally in the study of the…
The Minkowski length of a lattice polytope $P$ is a natural generalization of the lattice diameter of $P$. It can be defined as the largest number of lattice segments whose Minkowski sum is contained in $P$. The famous Ehrhart theorem…
Roughly speaking, the rank of a Delaunay polytope (first introduced in \cite{DGL92}) is its number of degrees of freedom. In \cite{DL}, a method for computing the rank of a Delaunay polytope $P$ using the hypermetrics related to $P$ is…
The restricted Delaunay triangulation of a closed surface $\Sigma$ and a finite point set $V \subset \Sigma$ is a subcomplex of the Delaunay tetrahedralization of $V$ whose triangles approximate $\Sigma$. It is well known that if $V$ is a…
By using representation theory, we reduce the size of the set of possible values for the dimension of the convex hull of all feasible points polytope of an orthogonal array (OA) defining integer linear program (ILP). Our results address the…
This article aims to study the class of strongly self-dual polytopes (ssd-polytopes for short), defined in a paper by Lov\'asz \cite{lovasz}. He described a series of such polytopes (called $L$-type polytopes), which he used to solve a…
