We classify the d-dimensional simplicial, terminal, and reflexive polytopes with at least 3d-2 vertices. In particular, it turns out that these are all smooth Fano polytopes. This improves on previous results of Casagrande in 2006 and Oebro…

We classify here combinatorially rigid simple polytopes with three facets more than their dimension.

Twinned chain polytopes form a broad class of non-centrally symmetric reflexive polytopes and exhibit intriguing structures. In the present paper, we show that the number of facets of $d$-dimensional twinned chain polytopes is at most…

We prove that, given a polyhedron $\mathcal P$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$, every point in $\mathbb R^3$ that does not see any vertex of $\mathcal P$ must see eight or more edges of $\mathcal P$, and this bound is tight. More generally, this remains…

The paper establishes that the rank of a regular polygonal complex in 3-space E^3 cannot exceed 4, and that the only regular polygonal complexes of rank 4 in 3-space are the eight regular 4-apeirotopes.

We show that there is no compact hyperbolic Coxeter d-polytope with d+4 facets for d>7. This bound is sharp: examples of such polytopes up to dimension 7 were found by Bugaenko (1984). We also show that in dimension d=7 the polytope with 11…

We have found the minimal difference $\Delta(k) = \min\limits_P (f_{d-1}(P) - f_{0}(P))$ between the number of facets and the number of vertices of a $k$-neighborly $d$-polytope $P$ for the case $f_{0}(P) = d+3$: $\Delta(2) = 4$, $\Delta(3)…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a chiral polytope with type $\{k_1, k_2\}$ and $G=Aut(\mathcal{P})$. Suppose $|G|=2p^m$, where $k_1, k_2\geq 3$ and $p$ is an odd prime. Let $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$. We prove that $G \cong P \rtimes…

In our previous works we have classified real non-singular cubic hypersurfaces in the 5-dimensional projective space up to equivalence that includes both real projective transformations and continuous variations of coefficients preserving…

It is possible to write the indicator function of any matroid polytope as an integer combination of indicator functions of Schubert matroid polytopes. In this way, every matroid on $n$ elements of rank $r$ can be thought of as a lattice…

Let $d \geq 3$ be an integer. It is known that the number of edges of the edge polytope of the complete graph with $d$ vertices is $d(d-1)(d-2)/2$. In this paper, we study the maximum possible number $\mu_d$ of edges of the edge polytope…

Let X be a complex, Gorenstein, Q-factorial, toric Fano variety. We prove two conjectures on the maximal Picard number of X in terms of its dimension and its pseudo-index, and characterize the boundary cases. Equivalently, we determine the…

In this paper we classify complex K3 surfaces with non-symplectic automorphism of order 8 that leaves invariant a smooth elliptic curve. We show that the rank of the Picard group is either 10, 14 or 18 and the fixed locus is the disjoint…

For a finite planar graph, it associates with some metric spaces, called (regular) spherical polyhedral surfaces, by replacing faces with regular spherical polygons in the unit sphere and gluing them edge-to-edge. We consider the class of…

We study the asymptotic Plateau problem in $\mathbb{H}_2\times \mathbb{R}$. We give the first examples of non-fillable finite curves with no thin tail in the asymptotic cylinder. Furthermore, we study the fillability question for infinite…

We prove that there is an absolute constant $ C$ such that for every $ n \geq 2 $ and $ N\geq 10^n, $ there exists a polytope $ P_{n,N} \subset \mathbb{R}^n $ with at most $ N $ facets that satisfies…

In this paper, we give an example of a chiral 4-polytope in projective 3-space. This example naturally yields a finite chiral 4-polytope in Euclidean 4-space, giving a counterexample to Theorem 11.2 of [2].

We investigate asymptotically flat manifolds with cone structure at infinity. We show that any such manifold M has a finite number of ends. For simply connected ends we classify all possible cones at infinity, except for the 4-dimensional…

We show that a small cover of dimension $3$ is atorodal if and only if there is no $4$-belt in the corresponding simple polytope.

We prove that Dirichlet stereohedra for non-cubic crystallographic groups in dimension 3 cannot have more than 80 facets. The bound depends on the particular crystallographic group considered and is above 50 only on 9 of the 97 affine…
