Let $X_{P}$ be the projective toric surface associated to a lattice polytope $P$. If the number of lattice points lying on the boundary of $P$ is at least $4$, it is known that $X_{P}$ is embeddable into a suitable projective space as zero…

We give an effective upper bound on the h^*-polynomial of a lattice polytope in terms of its degree and leading coefficient, confirming a conjecture of Batyrev. We deduce this bound as a consequence of a strong Cayley decomposition theorem…

It is shown that the smallest possible distance between two disjoint lattice polytopes contained in the cube $[0,k]^3$ is exactly $$ \frac{1}{\sqrt{2(2k^2-4k+5)(2k^2-2k+1)}} $$ for every integer $k$ at least $4$. The proof relies on…

Upper bounds on the minimum Lee distance of codes that are linear over ${\mathbb Z}_q$, $q=p^t$, $p$ prime are discussed. The bounds are Singleton like, depending on the length, rank, and alphabet size of the code. Codes meeting such bounds…
