In this paper, we address the problem of counting integer points in a rational polytope described by $P(y) = \{ x \in \mathbb{R}^m \colon Ax = y, x \geq 0\}$, where $A$ is an $n \times m$ integer matrix and $y$ is an $n$-dimensional integer…

We describe a maximum entropy approach for computing volumes and counting integer points in polyhedra. To estimate the number of points from a particular set X in R^n in a polyhedron P in R^n, by solving a certain entropy maximization…

In our work, we consider the problem of computing a vector $x \in Z^n$ of minimum $\|\cdot\|_p$-norm such that $a^\top x \not= a_0$, for any vector $(a,a_0)$ from a given subset of $Z^n$ of size $m$. In other words, we search for a vector…

Let a polytope $P$ be defined by a system $A x \leq b$. We consider the problem of counting the number of integer points inside $P$, assuming that $P$ is $\Delta$-modular, where the polytope $P$ is called $\Delta$-modular if all the rank…

We study integer programming instances over polytopes P(A,b)={x:Ax<=b} where the constraint matrix A is random, i.e., its entries are i.i.d. Gaussian or, more generally, its rows are i.i.d. from a spherically symmetric distribution. The…

Let $d$ be a positive integer. For a finite set $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, we define its integer cone as the set $\mathsf{IntCone}(X) := \{ \sum_{x \in X} \lambda_x \cdot x \mid \lambda_x \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0} \} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$.…

Abstract: The number of points $x=(x_1 ,x_2 ,...x_n)$ that lie in an integer cube $C$ in $R^n$ and satisfy the constraints $\sum_j h_{ij}(x_j )=s_i ,1\le i\le d$ is approximated by an Edgeworth-corrected Gaussian formula based on the…

We classify, according to their computational complexity, integer optimization problems whose constraints and objective functions are polynomials with integer coefficients and the number of variables is fixed. For the optimization of an…

We expand on a result of Barvinok and Hartigan to derive asymptotic formulas for the number of integer and binary integer points in a wide class of multi-index $k_1\times k_2\times \ldots \times k_{\nu}$ transportation polytopes. A simple…

The parametric lattice-point counting problem is as follows: Given an integer matrix $A \in Z^{m \times n}$, compute an explicit formula parameterized by $b \in R^m$ that determines the number of integer points in the polyhedron $\{x \in…

A simple method to produce a random order type is to take the order type of a random point set. We conjecture that many probability distributions on order types defined in this way are heavily concentrated and therefore sample inefficiently…

The Integer Programming Problem (IP) for a polytope P \subseteq R^n is to find an integer point in P or decide that P is integer free. We give an algorithm for an approximate version of this problem, which correctly decides whether P…

We prove limit theorems for the number of fixed points, descents, and inversions of iterated random-to-top shuffles in two asymptotic regimes. Our proofs are analytic, and they utilize new combinatorial decompositions that represent each…

Suppose that a polygon $P$ is given as an array containing the vertices in counterclockwise order. We analyze how many vertices (including the index of each of these vertices) we need to know before we can bound $P$, i.e., report a bounded…

We prove upper bounds on the graph diameters of polytopes in two settings. The first is a worst-case bound for polytopes defined by integer constraints in terms of the height of the integers and certain subdeterminants of the constraint…

Counting integer solutions of linear constraints has found interesting applications in various fields. It is equivalent to the problem of counting lattice points inside a polytope. However, state-of-the-art algorithms for this problem…

In the area of symbolic-numerical computation within computer algebra, an interesting question is how "close" a random input is to the "critical" ones, like the singular matrices in linear algebra or the polynomials with multiple roots for…

We extend the Barvinok-Woods algorithm for enumerating projections of integer points in polytopes to unbounded polyhedra. For this, we obtain a new structural result on projections of semilinear subsets of the integer lattice. We extend the…

We show that one can enumerate the vertices of the convex hull of integer points in polytopes whose constraint matrices have bounded and nonzero subdeterminants, in time polynomial in the dimension and encoding size of the polytope. This…
