It is known for scalar ordinary differential equations, and for systems of ordinary differential equations of order not higher than the third, that their Lie point symmetry algebras is of maximal dimension if and only if they can be reduced…
Orthogonal surfaces are nice mathematical objects which have interesting connections to various fields, e.g., integer programming, monomial ideals and order dimension. While orthogonal surfaces in one or two dimensions are rather trivial…

We show the existence of a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) for the problem of maximizing a non-negative polynomial over mixed-integer sets in convex polytopes, when the number of variables is fixed. Moreover, using a…
The aim in packing problems is to decide if a given set of pieces can be placed inside a given container. A packing problem is defined by the types of pieces and containers to be handled, and the motions that are allowed to move the pieces.…
We develop dimension theory for a large class of structures called espaliers, consisting of a set $L$ equipped with a partial order $\leq$, an orthogonality relation $\perp$, and an equivalence relation $\sim$, subject to certain axioms.…
We study the problem of $2$-dimensional orthogonal range counting with additive error. Given a set $P$ of $n$ points drawn from an $n\times n$ grid and an error parameter $\eps$, the goal is to build a data structure, such that for any…

Let $P$ be a rational polyhedron in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and let $\mathcal{L}$ be a class of $d$-dimensional maximal lattice-free rational polyhedra in $\mathbb{R}^d$. For $L \in \mathcal{L}$ by $R_L(P)$ we denote the convex hull of points…

We study the integrality gap of convex mixed-integer programs, that is, the difference between the optimal value of such a problem and the optimal value of its continuous relaxation. We study classes of convex sets whose associated…
We consider ILPs, where each variable corresponds to an integral point within a polytope $\mathcal{P}$, i. e., ILPs of the form $\min\{c^{\top}x\mid \sum_{p\in\mathcal P\cap \mathbb Z^d} x_p p = b, x\in\mathbb Z^{|\mathcal P\cap \mathbb…
A lattice Delaunay polytope P is called perfect if its Delaunay sphere is the only ellipsoid circumscribed about P. We present a new algorithm for finding perfect Delaunay polytopes. Our method overcomes the major shortcomings of the…
We present slight refinements of known general lower and upper bounds on sizes of extended formulations for polytopes. With these observations we are able to compute the extension complexities of all 0/1-polytopes up to dimension 4. We…
A fundamental theorem of linear programming states that a feasible linear program is solvable if and only if its objective function is copositive with respect to the recession cone of its feasible set. This paper demonstrates that this…
Consider a convex set S defined by a matrix inequality of polynomials or rational functions over a domain. The set S is called semidefinite programming (SDP) representable or just semidefinite representable if it equals the projection of a…
We address the problem of constructing elliptic polytopes in R^d, which are convex hulls of finitely many two-dimensional ellipses with a common center. Such sets arise in the study of spectral properties of matrices, asymptotics of long…
The theory of $n$-fold integer programming has been recently emerging as an important tool in parameterized complexity. The input to an $n$-fold integer program (IP) consists of parameter $A$, dimension $n$, and numerical data of binary…
We prove upper bounds on the graph diameters of polytopes in two settings. The first is a worst-case bound for polytopes defined by integer constraints in terms of the height of the integers and certain subdeterminants of the constraint…
Our contribution in this paper is two folded. We consider first the case of linear programming with real coefficients and give a method which allows the computation of a new upper bound on the distance from the origin to a feasible point.…
