Self dual reflexive simplices with Eulerian polynomials

Combinatorics 2017-11-21 v2

Abstract

A lattice polytope P\mathcal{P} is called reflexive if its dual P\mathcal{P}^\vee is a lattice polytope. The property that P\mathcal{P} is unimodularly equivalent to P\mathcal{P}^\vee does not hold in general, and in fact there are few examples of such polytopes. In this note, we introduce a new reflexive simplex QnQ_n which has this property. Additionally, we show that δ\delta-polynomalial of QnQ_n is the Eulerian polynomial and show the existence of a regular, flag, unimodular triangulation.
