Projected Products of Polytopes

Metric Geometry 2007-05-23 v1 Combinatorics

Abstract

We construct a 2-parameter family of 4-dimensional polytopes with extreme combinatorial structure: In this family, the ``fatness'' of the f-vector gets arbitrarily close to 9, the ``complexity'' (given by the flag vector) gets arbitrarily close to 16. The polytopes are obtained from suitable deformed products of even polygons by a projection to four-space.
