We extend the polynomial approach to hook length formula proposed in a recent joint paper with K\'arolyi, Nagy and Volkov to several other problems of the same type, including number of paths formula in the Young graph of strict partitions.
In this paper, we compute the covolume of the group of units of the quadratic form f_d^n(x) = x_1^2 + x_2^2 + . . . + x_n^2 - d x_{n+1}^2 with d an odd, positive, square-free integer. Mcleod has determined the hyperbolic Coxeter fundamental…
The Minkowski mixed volume of $n$ subpolytopes $D_1, \dots, D_n$ of a polytope $P \subset {\mathbb R}^n$ clearly does not exceed the normalized volume $n! \text{Vol}(P)$. Equality holds if and only if the subpolytopes are interlaced, i.e.,…
The face poset of the permutohedron realizes the combinatorics of linearly ordered partitions of the set $[n]=\{1,...,n\}$. Similarly, the cyclopermutohedron is a virtual polytope that realizes the combinatorics of cyclically ordered…
We study the problem of approximating the mixed volume $V(P_1^{(\alpha_1)}, \dots, P_k^{(\alpha_k)})$ of an $k$-tuple of convex polytopes $(P_1, \dots, P_k)$, each of which is defined as the convex hull of at most $m_0$ points in…
We consider a compact hyperbolic antiprism. It is a convex polyhedron with $2n$ vertices in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$. This polyhedron has a symmetry group $S_{2n}$ generated by a mirror-rotational symmetry of order $2n$, i.e.…

This paper collects some important formulas on hyperbolic volume. To determine concrete values of volume function is a very hard question requiring the knowledge of various methods. Our goal to give a non-elementary integral on the volume…
We prove the following sparse approximation result for polytopes. Assume that $Q$ is a polytope in John's position. Then there exist at most $2d$ vertices of $Q$ whose convex hull $Q'$ satisfies $Q \subseteq - 2d^2 \, Q'$. As a consequence,…
In this paper we introduce a combinatorial formula for the Ekeland-Hofer-Zehnder capacity of a convex polytope in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. One application of this formula is a certain subadditivity property of this capacity.
A permutation polytope is the convex hull of a group of permutation matrices. In this paper we investigate the combinatorics of permutation polytopes and their faces. As applications we completely classify permutation polytopes in…
Schubitopes were introduced by Monical, Tokcan and Yong as a specific family of generalized permutohedra. It was proven by Fink, M\'esz\'aros and St.$\,$Dizier that Schubitopes are the Newton polytopes of the dual characters of flagged Weyl…
There exists, in general, no unique definition of the size (volume, area, etc., depending on dimension) of a soliton. Here we demonstrate that the geometric volume (area etc.) of a soliton is singled out in the sense that it exactly…
A ball polyhedron is a finite intersection of congruent balls in $\mathbb{R}^3$. These shapes arise in various contexts in discrete and convex geometry. We focus on Reuleaux polyhedra, the subclass of ball polyhedra whose centers and…
The mixed area of a Reuleaux polygon and its symmetric with respect to the origin is expressed in terms of the mixed area of two explicit polygons. This gives a geometric explanation of a classical proof due to Chakerian. Mixed areas and…

This paper develops a unified framework for estimating the volume of a set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ based on observations of points uniformly distributed over the set. The framework applies to all classes of sets satisfying one simple axiom: a…
This paper deals with lattice congruences of the weak order on the symmetric group, and initiates the investigation of the cover graphs of the corresponding lattice quotients. These graphs also arise as the skeleta of the so-called…
We state a general formula to compute the volume of the intersection of the regular $n$-simplex with some $k$-dimensional subspace. It is known that for central hyperplanes the one through the centroid containing $n-1$ vertices gives the…
