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…

In this paper we are constructing integer lattice squares, cubes or hypercubes in $\mathbb R^d$ with $d\in \{2,3,4\}$. For squares and cubes we find a complete description of their Ehrhart polynomial. For hypercubes, we compute one of the…

A polytope is integral if all of its vertices are lattice points. The constant term of the Ehrhart polynomial of an integral polytope is known to be 1. In previous work, we showed that the coefficients of the Ehrhart polynomial of a…

We discuss generalizations of some results on lattice polygons to certain piecewise linear loops which may have a self-intersection but have vertices in the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We first prove a formula on the rotation number of a…

The Ehrhart polynomial of a lattice polytope $P$ encodes information about the number of integer lattice points in positive integral dilates of $P$. The $h^\ast$-polynomial of $P$ is the numerator polynomial of the generating function of…

We prove that a rational pseudointegral triangle with exactly one lattice point in its interior has at most $9$ lattice points on its boundary, where a polygon $P$ is called pseudointegral if the Ehrhart function of $P$ is a polynomial. We…

Let $P$ be a polytope with rational vertices. A classical theorem of Ehrhart states that the number of lattice points in the dilations $P(n) = nP$ is a quasi-polynomial in $n$. We generalize this theorem by allowing the vertices of P(n) to…

We use the residue theorem to derive an expression for the number of lattice oints in a dilated n-dimensional tetrahedron with vertices at lattice points on each coordinate axis and the origin. This expression is known as the Ehrhart…

The notion of Ehrhart tensor polynomials, a natural generalization of the Ehrhart polynomial of a lattice polytope, was recently introduced by Ludwig and Silverstein. We initiate a study of their coefficients. In the vector and matrix…
