Abstract

Stanley introduced two classes of lattice polytopes associated to posets, which are called the order polytope OP{\mathcal O}_P and the chain polytope CP{\mathcal C}_P of a poset PP. It is known that, given a poset PP, the Ehrhart polynomials of OP{\mathcal O}_P and CP{\mathcal C}_P are equal to the order polynomial of PP that counts the PP-partitions. In this paper, we introduce the enriched order polytope of a poset PP and show that it is a reflexive polytope whose Ehrhart polynomial is equal to that of the enriched chain polytope of PP and the left enriched order polynomial of PP that counts the left enriched PP-partitions, by using the theory of Gr\"{o}bner bases. The toric rings of enriched order polytopes are called enriched Hibi rings. It turns out that enriched Hibi rings are normal, Gorenstein, and Koszul. The above result implies the existence of a bijection between the lattice points in the dilations of OP(e){\mathcal O}^{(e)}_P and CP(e){\mathcal C}^{(e)}_P. Towards such a bijection, we give the facet representations of enriched order and chain polytopes.
