To classify the lattice polytopes with a given $\delta$-polynomial is an important open problem in Ehrhart theory. A complete classification of the Gorenstein simplices whose normalized volumes are prime integers is known. In particular,…
In this paper we study $\times_0$-products of Lann\'er diagrams. We prove that every $\times_0$-product of at least four Lann\'er diagrams with at least one diagram of order $\ge 3$ is superhyperbolic. As a corollary, we obtain that known…
An equidistant polytope is a special equidistant set in the space $\mathbb{R}^n$ all of whose boundary points have equal distances from two finite systems of points. Since one of the finite systems of the given points is required to be in…
Let $c:\mathcal{G}\to\R$ be a cocycle on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ with Haar system. Under some mild conditions (satisfied by all integer valued cocycles on \'{e}tale groupoids), $c$ gives rise to an unbounded odd…
We study semigroup algebras associated to lattice polytopes. We begin by generalizing and refining work of Hochster, and describe the volume maps of these algebras, that is, their fundamental classes, in terms of Parseval-Rayleigh…
Lattice polytopes are called IDP polytopes if they have the integer decomposition property, i.e., any lattice point in a $k$th dilation is a sum of $k$ lattice points in the polytope. It is a long-standing conjecture whether the numerator…
We show that all stack-sorting polytopes are simplices. Furthermore, we show that the stack-sorting polytopes generated from $Ln1$ permutations have relative volume 1. We establish an upper bound for the number of lattice points in a…
Let $P$ be a finite poset, $K$ a field, and $O(P)$ (resp. $C(P)$) the order (resp. chain) polytope of $P$. We study the non-Gorenstein locus of $E_K[O(P)]$ (resp. $E_K[C(P)]$), the Ehrhart ring of $O(P)$ (resp. $C(P)$) over $K$, which are…
It is shown that every linear strong Birkhoff-James isomorphism between unital $C^*$-algebras is a $*$-isomorphism followed by a unitary multiplication. Moreover, as a partial extension of this result to the non-unital case, the form of…
Let $P$ be a finite poset and $L$ the associated distributive lattice of order ideals of $P$. Let $\rho$ denote the rowmotion bijection of the order ideals of $P$ viewed as a permutation matrix and $C$ the Coxeter matrix for the incidence…
The complexity of a block of a symmetric algebra can be measured by the notion of defect, a numerical datum associated with each of the simple modules contained in the block. Geck showed that the defect is a block invariant for…
Let $\mathsf{B}_1$ be the polynomial ring $\mathbb{C}[a^{\pm1},b]$ with the structure of a complex Hopf algebra induced from its interpretation as the algebra of regular functions on the affine linear algebraic group of complex invertible…
We study preorders on (equivalence classes of) maximal chains in the general context of polygonal lattices endowed with suitably nice edge labellings. We show that, given a quotient of polygonal lattices, such edge labellings descend to the…
We study the difference between the number of facets of the order polytope and the chain polytope of a poset. Hibi and Li classified posets where the gap is exactly zero. We describe the bounds on this gap using the new notion of crossing…
We characterize the edges of two classes of $0/1$-polytopes. The first class corresponds to the stable set polytope of a graph $G$ and includes chain polytopes of posets, some instances of matroid independence polytopes, as well as…
We introduce Lipschitz functions on a finite partially ordered set $P$ and study the associated Lipschitz polytope $L(P)$. The geometry of $L(P)$ can be described in terms of descent-compatible permutations and permutation statistics that…
The coefficients of the chain polynomial of a finite poset enumerate chains in the poset by their number of elements. It has been a challenging open problem to determine which posets have real-rooted chain polynomials. Two new classes of…
We classify lattice $3$-polytopes of width larger than one and with exactly $6$ lattice points. We show that there are $74$ polytopes of width $2$, two polytopes of width $3$, and none of larger width. We give explicit coordinates for…
The h^*-polynomial of a lattice polytope is the numerator of the generating function of the Ehrhart polynomial. Let P be a lattice polytope with h^*-polynomial of degree d and with linear coefficient h^*_1. We show that P has to be a…
A long-standing open conjecture in combinatorics asserts that a Gorenstein lattice polytope with the integer decomposition property (IDP) has a unimodal (Ehrhart) $h^\ast$-polynomial. This conjecture can be viewed as a strengthening of a…
