Let $P_{\lambda\Sigma_n}$ be the Ehrhart polynomial associated to an intergal multiple $\lambda$ of the standard symplex $\Sigma_n \subset \mathbb{R}^n$. In this paper we prove that if $(M, L)$ is an $n$-dimensional polarized toric manifold…
It is proved that if a graph is regular of even degree and contains a Hamilton cycle, or regular of odd degree and contains a Hamiltonian $3$-factor, then its line graph is Hamilton decomposable. This result partially extends Kotzig's…
Any homogeneous polynomial $P(x, y, z)$ of degree $d$, being restricted to a unit sphere $S^2$, admits essentially a unique representation of the form $\lambda + \sum_{k = 1}^d [\prod_{j = 1}^k L_{kj}]$, where $L_{kj}$'s are linear forms in…
Ehrhart's famous theorem states that the number of integral points in a rational polytope is a quasi-polynomial in the integral dilation factor. We study the case of rational dilation factors and it turns out that the number of integral…
We show that if $X$ is an indecomposable $PD_3$-complex and $\pi_1(X) is the fundamental group of a reduced finite graph of finite groups but is not virtually cyclic then $X$ is orientable, the underlying graph is a tree, all the edge…
We introduce a new family of symmetric polynomials $\mathfrak{G}^{(\mathbf{u},\mathbf{v})}_{\lambda}$ arising from exactly solvable lattice models associated with the quantised loop algebra $\mathcal{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}_{2}[z^\pm])$. The…
In this paper, we study nearly Gorensteinness of Ehrhart rings arising from lattice polytopes. We give necessary conditions and sufficient conditions on lattice polytopes for their Ehrhart rings to be nearly Gorenstein. Using this, we give…
Richard Stanley introduced the order polytope $\mathcal{O}(P)$ and the chain polytope $\mathcal{C}(P)$ arising from a finite partially ordered set $P$, and showed that the Ehrhart polynomial of $\mathcal{O}(P)$ is equal to that of…
We use a polynomial decomposition result by Stapledon to show that the numerator polynomial of the Ehrhart series of an open polytope is the difference of two symmetric polynomials with nonnegative integer coefficients. We obtain a related…
V. Golyshev conjectured that for any smooth polytope P of dimension at most five, the roots $z\in\C$ of the Ehrhart polynomial for P have real part equal to -1/2. An elementary proof is given, and in each dimension the roots are described…
Stanley introduced and studied two lattice polytopes, the order polytope and chain polytope, associated to a finite poset. Recently Ohsugi and Tsuchiya introduce an enriched version of them, called the enriched order polytope and enriched…
This work continues to study the set of quasi exactly solvable potentials related to the Eckart, Hult\'{e}n, Rosen-Morse, Coulomb and the harmonic oscillator potentials. We solve the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for each potential and obtain…
In this paper we generalize previous work on decomposition in three-dimensional orbifolds by 2-groups realized as analogues of central extensions, to orbifolds by more general 2-groups. We describe the computation of such orbifolds in…
Any homogeneous polynomial $P(x, y, z)$ of degree $d$, being restricted to a unit sphere $S^2$, admits essentially a unique representation of the form $\lambda_0 + \sum_{k = 1}^d \lambda_k [\prod_{j = 1}^k L_{kj}]$, where $L_{kj}$'s are…
This paper introduces the notion of an unravelled abstract regular polytope, and proves that $\SL_3(q) \rtimes <t>$, where $t$ is the transpose inverse automorphism of $\SL_3(q)$, possesses such polytopes for various congruences of $q$. A…
Lattice polytopes are called IDP polytopes if they have the integer decomposition property, i.e., any lattice point in a $k$th dilation is a sum of $k$ lattice points in the polytope. It is a long-standing conjecture whether the numerator…
We give a new elementary proof of the parallelizability of closed orientable 3-manifolds. We use as the main tool the fact that any such manifold admits a Heegaard splitting.
The Ehrhart polynomial $\text{ehr}_P(n)$ of a lattice polytope $P$ counts the number of integer points in the $n$-th integral dilate of $P$. The $f^*$-vector of $P$, introduced by Felix Breuer in 2012, is the vector of coefficients of…
Reflexive polytopes form one of the distinguished classes of lattice polytopes. Especially reflexive polytopes which possess the integer decomposition property are of interest. In the present paper, by virtue of the algebraic technique on…
We prove that, for any two polyhedral manifolds $\mathcal P, \mathcal Q$, there is a polyhedral manifold $\mathcal I$ such that $\mathcal P, \mathcal I$ share a common unfolding and $\mathcal I,\mathcal Q$ share a common unfolding. In other…
