Motivated by the analysis of the performance of the simplex method we study the behavior of families of pivot rules of linear programs. We introduce normalized-weight pivot rules which are fundamental for the following reasons: First, they…
Ordinary polytopes are known as a non-simplicial generalization of the cyclic polytopes. The face vectors of ordinary polytopes are shown to be log-concave.
We describe a general procedure which allows to construct, starting from a given Hamiltonian, the whole family of new ones sharing the same set of unparameterized trajectories in phase space. The symmetry structure of this family can be…

A complete set of N+1 mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) forms a convex polytope in the N^2-1 dimensional space of NxN Hermitian matrices of unit trace. As a geometrical object such a polytope exists for all values of N, while it is unknown…
Compact polyhedra of cubic point symmetry Oh, exhibit surfaces of planar sections (facets) characterized by normal vector families {abc} with up to 48 members each, compatible with Oh symmetry. We focus first on polyhedra confined by facets…
Numerous results on self-reciprocal polynomials over finite fields have been studied. In this paper we generalize some of these to a-self reciprocal polynomials defined in [4]. We consider some properties of the divisibility of a-reciprocal…
Inscribability of polytopes is a classic subject but also a lively research area nowadays. We illustrate this with a selection of well-known results and recent developments on six particular topics related to inscribable polytopes. Along…
We study the harmonic polytope, which arose in Ardila, Denham, and Huh's work on the Lagrangian geometry of matroids. We describe its combinatorial structure, showing that it is a $(2n-2)$-dimensional polytope with…
A theorem of Hunter ensures that the complete homogeneous symmetric polynomials of even degree are positive definite functions. A probabilistic interpretation of Hunter's theorem suggests a broad generalization: the construction of…
Given a chiral d-polytope K with regular facets, we describe a construction for a chiral (d + 1)-polytope P with facets isomorphic to K. Furthermore, P is finite whenever K is finite. We provide explicit examples of chiral 4-polytopes…
Cyclic polytopes are characterized as simplicial polytopes satisfying Gale's evenness condition (a combinatorial condition on facets relative to a fixed ordering of the vertices). Periodically-cyclic polytopes are polytopes for which…
This paper investigates the problem of listing faces of combinatorial polytopes, such as hypercubes, permutahedra, associahedra, and their generalizations. Firstly, we consider the face lattice, which is the inclusion order of all faces of…
Reflexive polytopes which have the integer decomposition property are of interest. Recently, some large classes of reflexive polytopes with integer decomposition property coming from the order polytopes and the chain polytopes of finite…
Vietoris-Rips and degree Rips complexes are represented as homotopy types by their underlying posets of simplices, and basic homotopy stability theorems are recast in these terms. These homotopy types are viewed as systems (or functors),…
We extend the classical notion of standardly stratified $k$-algebra (stated for finite dimensional $k$-algebras) to the more general class of rings, possibly without $1,$ with enough idempotents. We show that many of the fundamental…
This paper is a continuation of our previous work in which we defined the notion of a polytope complex and its $K$-theory. In this paper we produce formulas for the delooping of a simplicial polytope complex and the cofiber of a morphism of…
In this short paper we prove that a finite dimensional algebra is hereditary if and only if there is no loop in its ordinary quiver and every $\tau$-tilting module is tilting.
The rich and varied ways that genetic material can be passed between species has motivated extensive research into the theory of phylogenetic networks. Features that align with biological processes, or with desirable mathematical…
