We show by a direct construction that there are at least $\exp\{cV^{(d-1)/(d+1)}\}$ convex lattice polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ of volume $V$ that are different in the sense that none of them can be carried to an other one by a lattice…
We prove a sharp bound for the remainder term of the number of lattice points inside a ball, when averaging over a compact set of (not necessarily unimodular) lattices, in dimensions two and three. We also prove that such a bound cannot…
We present a formula for the degree of the discriminant of a smooth projective toric variety associated to a lattice polytope P, in terms of the number of integral points in the interior of dilates of faces of dimension greater or equal…
We show that up to unimodular equivalence there are only finitely many d-dimensional lattice polytopes without interior lattice points that do not admit a lattice projection onto a (d-1)-dimensional lattice polytope without interior lattice…
Among integral polytopes (vertices with integral coordinates), lattice-free polytopes - intersecting the lattice ONLY at their vertices- are of particular interestin combinatorics and geometry of numbers. A natural question is to measure…
We prove a lower bound on the canonical height associated to polynomials over number fields evaluated at points with infinite forward orbit. The lower bound depends only on the degree of the polynomial, the degree of the number field, and…
We show that the number of conjugacy classes of maximal finite subgroups of a lattice in a semisimple Lie group is linearly bounded by the covolume of the lattice. Moreover, for higher rank groups, we show that this number grows sublinearly…
The number of lattice points $\left| tP \cap \mathbb{Z}^d \right|$, as a function of the real variable $t>1$ is studied, where $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ belongs to a special class of algebraic cross-polytopes and simplices. It is shown that…
We construct a quasi-polynomial time deterministic approximation algorithm for computing the volume of an independent set polytope with restrictions. Randomized polynomial time approximation algorithms for computing the volume of a convex…
We prove tight lower bounds for the coefficients of the generalized $h$-vector of a rational polytope with a symmetry of prime order that is fixed--point--free on the boundary. These bounds generalize results of R.~Stanley and R.~Adin for…
The Ehrhart polynomial of an integral convex polytope counts the number of lattice points in dilates of the polytope. In math.CO/0402148, the authors conjectured that for any cyclic polytope with integral parameters, the Ehrhart polynomial…
We consider $d$-dimensional lattice polytopes $\Delta$ with $h^*$-polynomial $h^*_\Delta=1+h_k^*t^k$ for $1<k<(d+1)/2$ and relate them to some abelian subgroups of $\SL_{d+1}(\C)$ of order $1+h_k^*=p^r$ where $p$ is a prime number. These…
Given lattice polytopes $P_1, \ldots, P_k$ contained in a $k$-dimensional subspace $U \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ and a $d$-dimensional lattice polytope $Q \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, we compute the Hodge vector of the Cayley polytope $P_1 * \cdots…
We establish sharp asymptotic estimates for the diameter of primitive zonotopes when their dimension is fixed. We also prove that, for infinitely many integers $k$, the largest possible diameter of a lattice zonotope contained in the…
We prove matching asymptotic lower and upper bounds on the variances of the intrinsic volumes and the number of $k$-faces of $d$-dimensional random beta-polytopes. Using Stein's methods, we establish central limit theorems for the intrinsic…
The classical Steinitz theorem states that if the origin belongs to the interior of the convex hull of a set $S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, then there are at most $2d$ points of $S$ whose convex hull contains the origin in the interior.…
There is currently a growing interest in understanding which lattice simplices have unimodal local $h^\ast$-polynomials (sometimes called box polynomials); specifically in light of their potential applications to unimodality questions for…
We give an upper bound on the volume vol(P*) of a polytope P* dual to a d-dimensional lattice polytope P with exactly one interior lattice point, in each dimension d. This bound, expressed in terms of the Sylvester sequence, is sharp, and…
In this paper we show how to use elementary methods to prove that the volume of Sl_k R / Sl_k Z is zeta(2) * zeta(3) * ... * zeta(k) / k. Using a version of reduction theory presented in this paper, we can compute the volumes of certain…
The free sum is a basic geometric operation among convex polytopes. This note focuses on the relationship between the normalized volume of the free sum and that of the summands. In particular, we show that the normalized volume of the free…
