This article examines the universal polytope $\CP$ (of type $\{5,3,5\}$) whose facets are dodecahedra, and whose vertex figures are hemi-icosahedra. The polytope is proven to be finite, and the structure of its group is identified. This…
Consider an irreducible finite Coxeter system. We show that for any nonnegative integer n the sum of the nth powers of the Coxeter exponents can be written uniformly as a polynomial in four parameters: h (the Coxeter number), r (the rank),…
Given a set $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, a hollow polytope has vertices in $S$ but contains no other point of $S$ in its interior. We prove upper and lower bounds on the maximum number of vertices of hollow polytopes whose facets are…
In this paper, we show that for given integers $h$ and $d$ with $h \geq 1$ and $d \geq 3$, there exists a non-normal very ample integral convex polytope of dimension $d$ which has exactly $h$ holes.
We determine the lowest volume hyperbolic Coxeter polyhedron whose corresponding hyperbolic polyhedral 3-orbifold contains an essential 2-suborbifold, up to a canonical decomposition along essential hyperbolic triangle 2-suborbifolds.
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.…
We conjecture that for every dimension n not equal 3 there exists a noncompact hyperbolic n-manifold whose volume is smaller than the volume of any compact hyperbolic n-manifold. For dimensions n at most 4 and n=6 this conjecture follows…
Every convex polygon with $n$ vertices is a linear projection of a higher-dimensional polytope with at most $147\,n^{2/3}$ facets.
We apply combinatorial methods to a geometric problem: the classification of polytopes, in terms of Minkowski decomposability. Various properties of skeletons of polytopes are exhibited, each sufficient to guarantee indecomposability of a…
By gluing together the sides of eight copies of an all-right angled hyperbolic 6-dimensional polytope, two orientable hyperbolic 6-manifolds with Euler characteristic -1 are constructed. They are the first known examples of orientable…
A connection between real poles of the growth functions for Coxeter groups acting on hyperbolic space of dimensions three and greater and algebraic integers is investigated. In particular, a geometric convergence of fundamental domains for…
We construct infinite series of non-simple ideal hyperbolic Coxeter 4-polytopes whose growth rates are Perron numbers. This infinite series is the first example of such a non-compact infinite polytopal series.
The aim of this paper is the determination of the largest $n$-dimensional polytope with $n+3$ vertices of unit diameter. This is a special case of a more general problem proposed by Graham.
A polytope is called {\em regular-faced} if every one of its facets is a regular polytope. The 4-dimensional regular-faced polytopes were determined by G. Blind and R. Blind \cite{BlBl2,roswitha,roswitha2}. The last class of such polytopes…
Atkinson [2] found a sequence of three-dimensional hyperbolic polyhedra whose dihedral angles are $\pi /3$. In this paper, we construct another sequence of such polyhedra. We also determine the volumes of some of these polyhedra.
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…
As was pointed out by Nikulin [8] and Vinberg [10], a right-angled polyhedron of finite volume in hyperbolic n-space $\mathbb{H}^n$ has at least one cusp for $n\geq 5$. We obtain non-trivial lower bounds on the number of cusps of such…
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…
A convex polytope $P$ in the real projective space with reflections in the facets of $P$ is a Coxeter polytope if the reflections generate a subgroup $\Gamma$ of the group of projective transformations so that the $\Gamma$-translates of the…
Here, for $W$ the Coxeter group $\mathrm{D}_n$ where $n > 4$, it is proved that the maximal rank of an abstract regular polytope for $W$ is $n - 1$ if $n$ is even and $n$ if $n$ is odd. Further it is shown that $W$ has abstract regular…
