Lorentzian polynomials, recently introduced by Br\"and\'en and Huh, generalize the notion of log-concavity of sequences to homogeneous polynomials whose supports are integer points of generalized permutahedra. Br\"and\'en and Huh show that…
This is both an expository and research paper where we advocate a systematic study of continuous analogues of finite partially ordered sets, convex polytopes, oriented matroids, arrangements of subspaces, finite simplicial complexes, and…
The multiplihedra {M_n} form a family of polytopes originating in the study of higher categories and homotopy theory. While the multiplihedra may be unfamiliar to the algebraic combinatorics community, it is nestled between two families of…
This paper introduces an inductively defined tree notation for all the faces of polytopes arising from a simplex by truncations. This notation allows us to view inclusion of faces as the process of contracting tree edges. Our notation…
Many results in mass partitions are proved by lifting $\mathbb{R}^d$ to a higher-dimensional space and dividing the higher-dimensional space into pieces. We extend such methods to use lifting arguments to polyhedral surfaces. Among other…
We give a short survey on computational techniques which can be used to solve the representation conversion problem for polyhedra up to symmetries. We in particular discuss decomposition methods, which reduce the problem to a number of…
In this work we prove constructively that the complement $\R^n\setminus\pol$ of a convex polyhedron $\pol\subset\R^n$ and the complement $\R^n\setminus\Int(\pol)$ of its interior are regular images of $\R^n$. If $\pol$ is moreover bounded,…
We describe the cone of deformations of a Coxeter permutahedron, or equivalently, the nef cone of the toric variety associated to a Coxeter complex. This family of polytopes contains polyhedral models for the Coxeter-theoretic analogs of…
There is a simple formula for the Ehrhart polynomial of a cyclic polytope. The purpose of this paper is to show that the same formula holds for a more general class of polytopes, lattice-face polytopes. We develop a way of decomposing any…
A framework to systematically decouple high order elliptic equations into combination of Poisson-type and Stokes-type equations is developed. The key is to systematically construct the underling commutative diagrams involving the complexes…
Let $P\subset \mathbb R^n$ be a belt polytope, that is a polytope whose normal fan coincides with the fan of some hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal A$. Also, let $G:\mathbb R^n\to\mathbb R^d$ be a linear map of full rank whose kernel is in…
Two homotopy decompositions of supensions of spaces involving polyhedral products are given. The first decomposition is motivated by the decomposition of suspensions of polyhedral products by Bahri, Bendersky, Cohen, and Gitler, and is a…
Convex polytopes are convex hulls of point sets in the $n$-dimensional space $\E^n$ that generalize 2-dimensional convex polygons and 3-dimensional convex polyhedra. We concentrate on the class of $n$-dimensional polytopes in $\E^n$ called…
A generalization of the generating function for Gegenbauer polynomials is introduced whose coefficients are given in terms of associated Legendre functions of the second kind. We discuss how our expansion represents a generalization of…
It is shown how derived brackets naturally arise in sigma-models via Poisson- or antibracket, generalizing a recent observation by Alekseev and Strobl. On the way to a precise formulation of this relation, an explicit coordinate expression…
After fixing a triangulation $L$ of a $k$-dimensional simplex that has no new vertices on the boundary, we introduce a triangulation operation on all simplicial complexes that replaces every $k$-face with a copy of $L$, via a sequence of…
We investigate how to make the surface of a convex polyhedron (a polytope) by folding up a polygon and gluing its perimeter shut, and the reverse process of cutting open a polytope and unfolding it to a polygon. We explore basic enumeration…
This paper introduces some inverse sequences of different polyhedra all based on finite approximations of a compact metric space so they can be used to capture the shape type of the original space. It is shown that they are HPol-expansions,…
In their seminal paper, Berman and Boucksom exploited ideas from complex geometry to analyze asymptotics of spaces of holomorphic sections of tensor powers of certain line bundles $L$ over compact, complex manifolds as the power grows. This…
We suggest a method of computing volume for a simple polytope $P$ in three-dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$. This method combines the combinatorial reduction of $P$ as a trivalent graph $\Gamma$ (the $1$-skeleton of $P$) by…
