Blind and Mani (1987) proved that the entire combinatorial structure (the vertex-facet incidences) of a simple convex polytope is determined by its abstract graph. Their proof is not constructive. Kalai (1988) found a short, elegant, and…
We give a fast, exact algorithm for solving Dirichlet problems with polynomial boundary functions on quadratic surfaces in R^n such as ellipsoids, elliptic cylinders, and paraboloids. To produce this algorithm, first we show that every…
An ansatz describing in terms of formal asymptotic decompositions a leading term of asymptotics of the $n$ three-dimensional like-charged quantum particles scattering problem solution is suggested. The description of the solution in those…
In this work, we introduce and study the forbidden-vertices problem. Given a polytope P and a subset X of its vertices, we study the complexity of linear optimization over the subset of vertices of P that are not contained in X. This…
In this paper, we enumerate Newton polygons asymptotically. The number of Newton polygons is computable by a simple recurrence equation, but unexpectedly the asymptotic formula of its logarithm contains growing oscillatory terms. As the…
Denote by Q_d the d-dimensional hypercube. Addressing a recent question we estimate the number of ways the vertex set of Q_d can be partitioned into vertex disjoint smaller cubes. Among other results, we prove that the asymptotic order of…
Neighborly cubical polytopes exist: for any $n\ge d\ge 2r+2$, there is a cubical convex d-polytope $C^n_d$ whose $r$-skeleton is combinatorially equivalent to that of the $n$-dimensional cube. This solves a problem of Babson, Billera &…
Let $k$ be a finite field extension of the function field $\bfF_p(T)$ and $\bar{k}$ its algebraic closure. We count points in projective space $\Bbb P ^{n-1}(\bar{k})$ with given height and of fixed degree $d$ over the field $k$. If…
We use methods of combinatorics of polytopes together with geometrical and computational ones to obtain the complete list of compact hyperbolic Coxeter n-polytopes with n+3 facets, 3<n<8. Combined with results of Esselmann (1994), Andreev…
In connection with an unsolved problem of Bang (1951) we give a lower bound for the sum of the base volumes of cylinders covering a d-dimensional convex body in terms of the relevant basic measures of the given convex body. As an…
We construct, for every $d \geq 3$, a $d$-regular acyclic measurably bipartite graphing that admits no measurable perfect matching, resolving a problem of Kechris and Marks. A dense variant of our construction yields a coupling of two…
Masser and Vaaler have given an asymptotic formula for the number of algebraic numbers of given degree $d$ and increasing height. This problem was solved by counting lattice points (which correspond to minimal polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}$)…
We study the extension complexity of polytopes with few vertices or facets. On the one hand, we provide a complete classification of $d$-polytopes with at most $d+4$ vertices according to their extension complexity: Out of the…
By Andreev theorem acute-angled polyhedra of finite volume in a hyperbolic space $\mathbb H^{3}$ are uniquely determined by combinatorics of their 1-skeletons and dihedral angles. For a class of compact right-angled polyhedra and a class of…
In 1938 E. T. Bell introduced "The Iterated Exponential Integers". He proved that these numbers may be expressed by polynomials with rational coefficients. However, Bell gave no formulas for any of the coefficients except the trivial one,…
There is a simple formula for the Ehrhart polynomial of a cyclic polytope. The purpose of this paper is to show that the same formula holds for a more general class of polytopes, lattice-face polytopes. We develop a way of decomposing any…
A seminal result of E. Ehrhart states that the number of integer lattice points in the dilation of a rational polytope by a positive integer $k$ is a quasi-polynomial function of $k$ --- that is, a "polynomial" in which the coefficients are…
We consider certain systems of three linked simultaneous diagonal equations in ten variables with total degree exceeding five. By means of a complification argument, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of integral solutions of…
The $f$-vector of a polytope consists of the numbers of its $i$-dimensional faces. An open field of study is the characterization of all possible $f$-vectors. It has been solved in three dimensions by Steinitz in the early 19th century. We…
We describe an algorithm to enumerate polytopes. This algorithm is then implemented to give a complete classification of combinatorial spheres of dimension 3 with 9 vertices and decide polytopality of those spheres. In particular, we…
