The edges of the characteristic imset polytope, $\operatorname{CIM}_p$, were recently shown to have strong connections to causal discovery as many algorithms could be interpreted as greedy restricted edge-walks, even though only a strict…
The study of the graph diameter of polytopes is a classical open problem in polyhedral geometry and the theory of linear optimization. In this paper we continue the investigation initiated in [4] by introducing a vast hierarchy of…

Symmetric edge polytopes are lattice polytopes associated with finite simple graphs that are of interest in both theory and applications. We investigate the facet structure of symmetric edge polytopes for various models of random graphs.…
Characteristic imsets are 0/1-vectors representing directed acyclic graphs whose edges represent direct cause-effect relations between jointly distributed random variables. A characteristic imset (CIM) polytope is the convex hull of a…

The combinatorial diameter of a polytope $P$ is the maximum value of a shortest path between two vertices of $P$, where the path uses the edges of $P$ only. In contrast to the combinatorial diameter, the circuit diameter of $P$ is defined…
