We prove explicit bounds on the number of lattice points on or near a convex curve in terms of geometric invariants such as length, curvature, and affine arclength. In several of our results we obtain the best possible constants. Our…
Two lattice points are visible to one another if there exist no other lattice points on the line segment connecting them. In this paper we study convex lattice polygons that contain a lattice point such that all other lattice points in the…
Let $\mathcal A$ be a star-shaped polygon in the plane, with rational vertices, containing the origin. The number of primitive lattice points in the dilate $t\mathcal A$ is asymptotically $\frac6{\pi^2}$ Area$(t\mathcal A)$ as $t\to…
We study the perfect matching lattice of a matching covered graph $G$, generated by the incidence vectors of its perfect matchings. Building on results of Lov\'asz and de Carvalho, Lucchesi, and Murty, we give a polynomial-time algorithm…
A procedure for the construction and the classification of multilattices in arbitrary dimension is proposed. The algorithm allows to determine explicitly the location of the points of a multilattice given its space group, and to determine…
This paper concerns the number of lattice points in the plane which are visible along certain curves to all elements in some set S of lattice points simultaneously. By proposing the concept of level of visibility, we are able to analyze…
We prove sharp upper bounds on the volume and the number of lattice points on edges of higher-dimensional reflexive simplices. These convex-geometric results are derived from new number-theoretic bounds on the denominators of unit fractions…
The Gr\"atzer-Schmidt theorem of lattice theory states that each algebraic lattice is isomorphic to the congruence lattice of an algebra. We study the reverse mathematics of this theorem. We also show that the set of indices of computable…
For any lattice polytope $P$, we consider an associated polynomial $\bar{\delta}_{P}(t)$ and describe its decomposition into a sum of two polynomials satisfying certain symmetry conditions. As a consequence, we improve upon known…
The goal of this paper is to design a simplex algorithm for linear programs on lattice polytopes that traces `short' simplex paths from any given vertex to an optimal one. We consider a lattice polytope $P$ contained in $[0,k]^n$ and…
Although every exactly known bond percolation critical threshold is the root in $[0,1]$ of a lattice-dependent polynomial, it has recently been shown that the notion of a critical polynomial can be extended to any periodic lattice. The…
This paper deals with lattices $(L,\Vert~\Vert)$ over polynomial rings, where $L$ is a finitely generated module over $k[t]$, the polynomial ring over the field $k$ in the indeterminate $t$, and $\Vert~\Vert$ is a discrete real-valued…
For a lattice \Lambda in the complex plane, let K_{\Lambda} be the field of \Lambda-elliptic functions. For two relatively prime integers p (respectively q) greater than 1, consider the endomorphisms \psi (resp. \phi) of K_{\Lambda} given…
We consider random lattices taken from the general symplectic ensemble and count the number of lattice points of a typical lattice in nested families $B_t$ of certain Borel sets. Our main result is that for almost every general symplectic…
We completely classify non-spanning $3$-polytopes, by which we mean lattice $3$-polytopes whose lattice points do not affinely span the lattice. We show that, except for six small polytopes (all having between five and eight lattice…
A lattice path in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is a sequence $\nu_1,\nu_2,\ldots,\nu_k\in\mathbb{Z}^d$ such that the steps $\nu_i-\nu_{i-1}$ lie in a subset $\mathbf{S}$ of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for all $i=2,\ldots,k$. Let $T_{m,n}$ be the $m\times n$ table in…
Given a finite set of lattice points, we compare its sumsets and lattice points in its dilated convex hulls. Both of these are known to grow as polynomials. Generally, the former are subsets of the latter. In this paper, we will see that…
We strengthen the Weierstrass approximation theorem by proving that any real-valued continuous function on an interval $I \subset \mathbb{R}$ can be uniformly approximated by a real-valued polynomial whose only (possibly complex) critical…
We survey developments, over the last thirty years, in the theory of Shape Preserving Approximation (SPA) by algebraic polynomials on a finite interval. In this article, "shape" refers to (finitely many changes of) monotonicity, convexity,…
The family of lattice simplices in $\mathbb{R}^n$ formed by the convex hull of the standard basis vectors together with a weakly decreasing vector of negative integers include simplices that play a central role in problems in enumerative…
