We classify the convex polytopes whose symmetry groups have two orbits on the flags. These exist only in two or three dimensions, and the only ones whose combinatorial automorphism group is also two-orbit are the cuboctahedron, the…
Generalized permutahedra are the polytopes obtained from the permutahedron by changing the edge lengths while preserving the edge directions, possibly identifying vertices along the way. We introduce a "lifting" construction for these…
In this article we consider square permutations, a natural subclass of permutations defined in terms of geometric conditions, that can also be described in terms of pattern avoiding permutations, and convex permutoninoes, a related subclass…
Positive tuples of complete flags in $\mathbb{R}^3$ define two convex polygons in $\mathbb{RP}^2$, one inscribed in the other. We are interested in relating the Holmes-Thompson area of the inner polygon for the Hilbert metric on the outer…
This is a survey on algorithmic questions about combinatorial and geometric properties of convex polytopes. We give a list of 35 problems; for each the current state of knowledege on its theoretical complexity status is reported. The…
We prove that each bounded polytope can be represented as a polynomial zonotope, which we refer to as the Z-representation of polytopes. Previous representations are the vertex representation (V-representation) and the halfspace…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in general position on the plane. A set of closed convex polygons with vertices in $P$, and with pairwise disjoint interiors is called a convex decomposition of $P$ if their union is the convex hull of $P$,…
The aim of this paper is to study alcoved polytopes, which are polytopes arising from affine Coxeter arrangements. This class of convex polytopes includes many classical polytopes, for example, the hypersimplices. We compare two…
We prove sharp inequalities for the average number of affine diameters through the points of a convex body $K$ in ${\mathbb R}^n$. These inequalities hold if $K$ is either a polytope or of dimension two. An example shows that the proof…
Positive geometries encode the physics of scattering amplitudes in flat space-time and the wavefunction of the universe in cosmology for a large class of models. Their unique canonical forms, providing such quantum mechanical observables,…

The convex hulls of face-vertex incident vectors of 3-face-colorable convex polytopes are computed. It is found that every such convex hull is a $d$-polytope with $d+2$ or $d+3$ vertices. Utilizing Gale transform and Gale diagram, we…
Given a finite set of lattice points, we compare its sumsets and lattice points in its dilated convex hulls. Both of these are known to grow as polynomials. Generally, the former are subsets of the latter. In this paper, we will see that…
Let $E$ be a finite-dimensional real vector space and $M\subseteq E$ be a convex polytope with non-empty interior. We turn the group of all $C^\infty$-diffeomorphisms of $M$ into a regular Lie group.
We define a special sort of weighted oriented graphs, signed quivers. Each of these yields a symmetric quiver, i.e., a quiver endowed with an involutive anti-automorphism and the inherited signs. We develop a representation theory of…
The goal of this paper is to present a general and novel approach for the reconstruction of any convex d-dimensional polytope P, from knowledge of its moments. In particular, we show that the vertices of an N-vertex polytope in R^d can be…
The mixing operation for abstract polytopes gives a natural way to construct the minimal common cover of two polytopes. In this paper, we apply this construction to the regular convex polytopes, determining when the mix is again a polytope,…
The Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) is a well-known NP-hard problem that is equivalent to optimizing a linear objective function over the QAP polytope. The QAP polytope with parameter $n$ - \qappolytope{n} - is defined as the convex hull…
Partial permutohedra are lattice polytopes which were recently introduced and studied by Heuer and Striker. For positive integers $m$ and $n$, the partial permutohedron $\mathcal{P}(m,n)$ is the convex hull of all vectors in…
Convex rank tests are partitions of the symmetric group which have desirable geometric properties. The statistical tests defined by such partitions involve counting all permutations in the equivalence classes. Each class consists of the…
