In Ehrhart theory, the $h^*$-vector of a rational polytope often provide insights into properties of the polytope that may be otherwise obscured. As an example, the Birkhoff polytope, also known as the polytope of real doubly-stochastic…
We derive special forms of the Poisson summation formula for even and odd functions, which are applied to obtain representations for Euler-type numbers and to sum various series related to elliptic functions.
We consider different generalizations of the Euler formula and discuss the properties of the associated trigonometric functions. The problem is analyzed from different points of view and it is shown that it can be formulated in a natural…
We describe a method for computing the highest degree coefficients of a weighted Ehrhart quasi-polynomial for a rational simple polytope.
One considers weighted sums over points of lattice polytopes, where the weight of a point v is the monomial q^f(v) for some linear form f. One proposes a q-analogue of the classical theory of Ehrhart series and Ehrhart polynomials,…
This dissertation presents new results on three different themes all related to matroid polytopes. First we investigate properties of Ehrhart polynomials of matroid polytopes, independence matroid polytopes, and polymatroids. We prove that…
We transformed the generalized exponential power series to another functional form suitable for further analysis. By applying the Cauchy-Euler differential operator in the form of an exponential operator, the series became a sum of…
For an integer $k$, define poly-Euler numbers of the second kind $\widehat E_n^{(k)}$ ($n=0,1,\dots$) by $$ \frac{{\rm Li}_k(1-e^{-4 t})}{4\sinh t}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\widehat E_n^{(k)}\frac{t^n}{n!}\,. $$ When $k=1$, $\widehat E_n=\widehat…

Let $D$ and $U$ be linear operators in a vector space (or more generally, elements of an associative algebra with a unit). We establish binomial-type identities for $D$ and $U$ assuming that either their commutator $[D,U]$ or the second…
There are many methods for finding a particular solution to a nonhomogeneous linear ordinary differential equation (ODE) with constant coefficients. The method of undetermined coefficients, Laplace transform method and differential operator…
The n'th Birkhoff polytope is the set of all doubly stochastic n-by-n matrices, that is, those matrices with nonnegative real coefficients in which every row and column sums to one. A wide open problem concerns the volumes of these…
In this paper we investigate the properties of the Euler functions. By using the Fourier transform for the Euler function, we derive the interesting formula related to the infinite series. Finally we give some interesting identities between…
A polytope is integral if all of its vertices are lattice points. The constant term of the Ehrhart polynomial of an integral polytope is known to be 1. In previous work, we showed that the coefficients of the Ehrhart polynomial of a…
The homogenization of elliptic divergence-type fourth-order operators with periodic coefficients is studied in a (periodic) domain. The aim is to find an operator with constant coefficients and represent the equation through a perturbation…
We present a method to compute the Euler characteristic of an algebraic subset of $\bc^n$. This method relies on clasical tools such as Gr\"obner basis and primary decomposition. The existence of this method allows us to define a new…
In Ehrhart theory, the well-known sign pattern problem asks: given a positive integer $d\geq 3$ and integers $1 \leq i_1 < \cdots < i_k \leq d-2$, does there exist a $d$-dimensional integral polytope $\mathcal{P}$ such that in its Ehrhart…
An interplay between the Lambert series and Euler's Pentagonal Number Theorem gives an Euler-type recurrence relation for any given arithmetical function. As consequences of this, we present Euler-type recurrence relations for some…
In this work, we review and extend some well known results for the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet $p-$Laplace operator to a more general class of monotone quasilinear elliptic operators. As an application we obtain some homogenization results…
In this expository article we give an introduction to Ehrhart theory, i.e., the theory of integer points in polyhedra, and take a tour through its applications in enumerative combinatorics. Topics include geometric modeling in…
