For $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $\ell\in\{0,1,\dots,n\}$, we consider the function extracting the $\ell$th coefficient of the Ehrhart polynomials of lattice polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^n$. These functions form a basis of the space of unimodular…
A complete classification of the $\delta$-vectors of lattice polytopes whose normalized volumes are at most $4$ is known. In the present paper, we will classify all the $\delta$-vectors of lattice polytopes with normalized volumes $5$.
In a previous paper (El. J. Combin. 6 (1999), R37), the author generalized Ehrhart's idea of counting lattice points in dilated rational polytopes: Given a rational polytope, that is, a polytope with rational vertices, we use its…
We obtain a recurrence relation for the f-polynomial of Gelfand-Zetlin polytopes by analyzing geometric properties of a linear projection of the Gelfand-Zetlin polytope onto a cube. We apply this recurrence relation to find explicit…
We construct Lagrange interpolating polynomials for a set of points and values belonging to the algebra of real quaternions $H\simeq R_{0,2}$, or to the real Clifford algebra $R_{0,3}$. In the quaternionic case, the approach by means of…
The Ehrhart polynomial $ehr_P (n)$ of a lattice polytope $P$ gives the number of integer lattice points in the $n$-th dilate of $P$ for all integers $n\geq 0$. The degree of $P$ is defined as the degree of its $h^\ast$-polynomial, a…
We derive lattice invariants from the heat flux of a lattice. Using systems of harmonic polynomials, we obtain sums of products of spherical theta functions which give new invariants of integer lattices which are modular forms. In…
Lattice polytope representation of natural numbers is introduced based on the fundamental theorem of arithmetic. The combinatorial and geometric properties of the polytopes are studied using Polymake and Qhull software. The volume of the…
In a recent paper, Cristofaro-Gardiner--Li--Stanley [CGLS15] constructed examples of irrational triangles whose Ehrhart functions (i.e. lattice-point count) are polynomials when restricted to positive integer dilation factors. This is very…
We give an effective method to compute the entropy for polynomials orthogonal on a segment of the real axis that uses as input data only the coefficients of the recurrence relation satisfied by these polynomials. This algorithm is based on…
We show that if two lattice $3$-polytopes $P$ and $P'$ have the same Ehrhart function then they are $\operatorname{GL}_3({\mathbb Z})$-equidecomposable; that is, they can be partitioned into relatively open simplices $U_1,\dots, U_k$ and…
The cosmological polytope of a graph $G$ was recently introduced to give a geometric approach to the computation of wavefunctions for cosmological models with associated Feynman diagram $G$. Basic results in the theory of positive…
We prove that the cohomology algebra of elliptic arrangements depends only on the poset of layers. In the particular case of braid elliptic arrangements, we study the cohomology as representation and we compute some Hodge numbers. Finally,…
We solve the difference equation with linear coefficients by the Momentenansatz to obtain explicit formulas for orthogonal polynomials.
The Tutte polynomial for matroids is not directly applicable to polymatroids. For instance, deletion-contraction properties do not hold. We construct a polynomial for polymatroids which behaves similarly to the Tutte polynomial of a…
A unified theory of orthogonal polynomials of a discrete variable is presented through the eigenvalue problem of hermitian matrices of finite or infinite dimensions. It can be considered as a matrix version of exactly solvable Schr\"odinger…
M. Beck, J. De Loera, M. Develin, J. Pfeifle and R. Stanley found that the roots of the Ehrhart polynomial of a d-dimensional lattice polytope are bounded above in norm by 1+(d+1)!. We provide an improved bound which is quadratic in d and…
The classical quadratic formula and some of its lesser known variants for solving the quadratic equation are reviewed. Then, a new formula for the roots of a quadratic polynomial is presented.
We obtain exact, simple and very compact expressions for the linearization coefficients of the products of orthogonal polynomials; both the conventional Clebsch-Gordan-type and the modified version. The expressions are general depending…
We investigate the sign patterns of coefficients in the Ehrhart polynomial of the Cartesian product between the $r$-th pyramid over the Reeve tetrahedron and the hypercube $[0, n]^n$. This investigation yields partial results on the sign…
