We develop a method for subdividing polyhedral complexes in a way that restricts the possible recession cones and allows one to work with a fixed class of polyhedron. We use these results to construct locally finite completions of rational…
A cubic polyhedron is a polyhedral surface whose edges are exactly all the edges of the cubic lattice. Every such polyhedron is a discrete minimal surface, and it appears that many (but not all) of them can be relaxed to smooth minimal…
The aim of this paper is to study finite orthogonal polynomials on a cone of revolution and its surface. We define two classes of finite orthogonal polynomials on the solid cone and derive their corresponding differential equations and…
We introduce the notion of a polyptych lattice, which encodes a collection of lattices related by piecewise linear bijections. We initiate a study of the new theory of convex geometry and polytopes associated to polyptych lattices. In…
Let $\Phi$ be a finite crystallographic irreducible root system and $\mathcal P_{\Phi}$ be the convex hull of the roots in $\Phi$. We give a uniform explicit description of the polytope $\mathcal P_{\Phi}$, analyze the…
Skeletal polyhedra and polygonal complexes are finite or infinite periodic structures in 3-space with interesting geometric, combinatorial, and algebraic properties. These structures can be viewed as finite or infinite periodic graphs…
A complex manifold $X$ is called "LCK manifolds with potential" if it can be realized as a complex submanifold of a Hopf manifold. Let $Y$ its $\Z$-covering, considered as a complex submanifold in $C^n \backslash 0$. We prove that $Y$ is…
Various characterizations of finite convex geometries are well known. This note provides similar characterizations for possibly infinite convex geometries whose lattice of closed sets is strongly coatomic and lower continuous. Some classes…
We study infinitesimal deformations of complete hyperbolic surfaces with boundary and with ideal vertices, possibly decorated with horoballs. ``Admissible'' deformations are the ones that pull all horoballs apart; they form a convex cone of…
We describe the cone of deformations of a Coxeter permutahedron, or equivalently, the nef cone of the toric variety associated to a Coxeter complex. This family of polytopes contains polyhedral models for the Coxeter-theoretic analogs of…
A polygonal complex in euclidean 3-space is a discrete polyhedron-like structure with finite or infinite polygons as faces and finite graphs as vertex-figures, such that a fixed number r of faces surround each edge. It is said to be regular…
Consider an algebraic semigroup $S$ and its closed subscheme of idempotents, $E(S)$. When $S$ is commutative, we show that $E(S)$ is finite and reduced; if in addition $S$ is irreducible, then $E(S)$ is contained in a smallest closed…
Rectangulations are decompositions of a square into finitely many axis-aligned rectangles. We describe realizations of $(n-1)$-dimensional polytopes associated with two combinatorial families of rectangulations composed of $n$ rectangles.…
Toric geometry provides a bridge between the theory of polytopes and algebraic geometry: one can associate to each lattice polytope a polarized toric variety. In this thesis we explore this correspondence to classify smooth lattice…
An orbit polytope is the convex hull of an orbit under a finite group $G \leq \operatorname{GL}(d,\mathbb{R})$. We develop a general theory of possible affine symmetry groups of orbit polytopes. For every group, we define an open and dense…
A new way of constructing fusion bases (i.e., the set of inequalities governing fusion rules) out of fusion elementary couplings is presented. It relies on a polytope reinterpretation of the problem: the elementary couplings are associated…
Skeletal polyhedra and polygonal complexes in ordinary Euclidean 3-space are finite or infinite 3-periodic structures with interesting geometric, combinatorial, and algebraic properties. They can be viewed as finite or infinite 3-periodic…
Given a rational convex polyhedral Gorenstein cone constructed as cone over a lattice polytope P, we establish that toric non-commutative crepant resolutions (NCCRs) of its associated toric algebra descend to toric NCCRs of the algebras…
This article introduces the theory of Veronese polytopes, a broad generalisation of cyclic polytopes. These arise as convex hulls of points on curves with one or more connected components, obtained as the image of the rational normal curve…
We study polar orbitopes, i.e. convex hulls of orbits of a polar representation of a compact Lie group. The face structure is studied by means of the gradient momentum map and it is shown that every face is exposed and is again a polar…
