Given any irreducible Coxeter group $C$ of hyperbolic type with non-linear diagram and rank at least $4$, whose maximal parabolic subgroups are finite, we construct an infinite family of locally spherical regular hypertopes of hyperbolic…
A cubical polytope is a polytope with all its facets being combinatorially equivalent to cubes. We deal with the connectivity of the graphs of cubical polytopes. We first establish that, for any $d\ge 3$, the graph of a cubical $d$-polytope…
When the standard representation of a crystallographic Coxeter group is reduced modulo an odd prime p, one obtains a finite group G^p acting on some orthogonal space over Z_p . If the Coxeter group has a string diagram, then G^p will often…
Neighborly polytopes are those that maximize the number of faces in each dimension among all polytopes with the same number of vertices. Despite their extremal properties they form a surprisingly rich class of polytopes, which has been…
We study the existence of cubic quotients of finite-dimensional quasi-normed spaces, that is, quotients well isomorphic to $\ell_{\infty}^k$ for some $k.$ We give two results of this nature. The first guarantees a proportional dimensional…
In this paper, we discuss f- and flag-vectors of 4-dimensional convex polytopes and cellular 3-spheres. We put forward two crucial parameters of fatness and complexity: Fatness F(P) := (f_1+f_2-20)/(f_0+f_3-10) is large if there are many…
In this paper, we classify all the hyperbolic non-compact Coxeter polytopes of finite volume combinatorial type of which is either a pyramid over a product of two simplices or a product of two simplices of dimension greater than one.…
Neighborly cubical polytopes are known as the cubical analogues of the cyclic polytopes. Using the short cubical $h$-vectors of cubical polytopes (introduced by Adin), we derive an explicit formula for the face numbers of the neighborly…
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.…
The lists of facets -- $298,592$ in $86$ orbits -- and of extreme rays -- $242,695,427$ in $9,003$ orbits -- of the hypermetric cone $HYP_8$ are computed. The first generalization considered is the hypermetric polytope $HYPP_n$ for which we…
The orthogonal projection of a 4-cube onto a uniform random 3-subspace in R^4 is a convex 3-polyhedron P with 14 vertices almost surely. Three numerical characteristics of P -- volume, surface area and mean width -- are studied. These…
In this note we prove that the number of combinatorial types of $d$-polytopes with $d+1+\alpha$ vertices and $d+1+\beta$ facets is bounded by a constant independent of $d$.
We describe and study the loci equidistant from finitely many points in the so-called complex hyperbolic geometry, i.e., in the geometry of a holomorphic $2$-ball $\Bbb B$. In particular, we show that the bisectors (= the loci equidistant…
We classify here combinatorially rigid simple polytopes with three facets more than their dimension.
In this paper, we obtain the complete classification for compact hyperbolic Coxeter four-dimensional polytopes with eight facets.
We present a number of complexity results concerning the problem of counting vertices of an integral polytope defined by a system of linear inequalities. The focus is on polytopes with small integer vertices, particularly 0/1 polytopes and…
Compact polyhedra of cubic point symmetry Oh, exhibit surfaces of planar sections (facets) characterized by normal vector families {abc} with up to 48 members each, compatible with Oh symmetry. We focus first on polyhedra confined by facets…
For all $n,\phi\in \mathbb{N}$ with $\phi\geqslant n+1$, the smallest possible isoperimetric quotient of an $n$-dimensional convex polytope that has $\phi$ facets is shown to be bounded from above and from below by positive universal…
Any convex polytope whose combinatorial automorphism group has two orbits on the flags is isomorphic to one whose group of Euclidean symmetries has two orbits on the flags (equivalently, to one whose automorphism group and symmetry group…
We consider closed topological 4-manifolds $M$ with universal cover ${S^2\times{S^2}}$ and Euler characteristic $\chi(M) = 1$. All such manifolds with $\pi=\pi_1(M)\cong {\mathbb Z}/4$ are homotopy equivalent. In this case, we show that…
