We show that minimizing a convex function over the integer points of a bounded convex set is polynomial in fixed dimension.
The main result of this paper is an inequality relating the lattice point enumerator of a 3-dimensional, 0-symmetric convex body and its successive minima. This is an example of generalization of Minkowski's theorems on successive minima,…
The problem of finding the number of lattice points in a triangle has a classical solution if the lattice is $\mathbf{Z}^2$ and the vertices of the triangle have integer valued coordinates. We consider what happens when we replace the…
In this revised form, the proof of the principal lemma has been simplified and the main theorem has been extended to all characteristics for those varieties which are smooth in codimension one. This principal theorem essentially says the…
In this paper, we present a more complete version of the minimax theorem established in [7]. As a consequence, we get, for instance, the following result: Let $X$ be a compact, not singleton subset of a normed space $(E,\|\cdot\|)$ and let…
We prove a complex polynomial of degree $n$ has at most $\lceil n/2 \rceil$ attractive fixed points lying on a line. We also consider the general case.
We consider the discrepancy of the integer lattice with respect to the collection of all translated copies of a dilated convex body having a finite number of flat, possibly non-smooth, points in its boundary. We estimate the $L^{p}$ norm of…
Given a set of $n$ points $P$ in the plane, the first layer $L_1$ of $P$ is formed by the points that appear on $P$'s convex hull. In general, a point belongs to layer $L_i$, if it lies on the convex hull of the set $P \setminus…
A detailed combinatorial analysis of planar lattice convex polygonal lines is presented. This makes it possible to answer an open question of Vershik regarding the existence of a limit shape when the number of vertices is constrained. The…
Consider lattice paths in Z^2 taking unit steps north (N) and east (E). Fix positive integers r,s and put an equivalence relation on points of Z^2 by letting v,w be equivalent if v - w = m (r,s) for some m in Z. Call a lattice path valid if…
In this paper we prove new lower bounds for the minimum distance of a toric surface code defined by a convex lattice polygon P. The bounds involve a geometric invariant L(P), called the full Minkowski length of P which can be easily…
Gathering different results from singularity theory, geometry and combinatorics, we show that the spectrum at infinity of a tame Laurent polynomial counts lattice points in polytopes and we deduce an effective algorithm in order to compute…
We expose here a short proof of Cramer's theorem in R based on convex duality.
For a convex body B in three-dimensional Euclidean space, which is invariant under rotations around one coordinate axis and has a smooth boundary of bounded nonzero curvature, the lattice point discrepancy (number of integer points minus…
Given $z\in C^n$ and $A\in Z^{m\times n}$, we consider the problem of evaluating the counting function $h(y;z):=\sum\{z^x : x\in Z^n; Ax=y, x\geq 0\}$. We provide an explicit expression for $h(y;z)$ as well as an algorithm with possibly…
We prove that every lattice with more than one element has a proper congruence-preserving extension.
Harborth [{\it Elemente der Mathematik}, Vol. 33 (5), 116--118, 1978] proved that every set of 10 points in the plane, no three on a line, contains an empty convex pentagon. From this it follows that the number of disjoint empty convex…
In the study of monostatic polyhedra, initiated by John H. Conway in 1966, the main question is to construct such an object with the minimal number of faces and vertices. By distinguishing between various material distributions and…
We prove various estimates for the mean square lattice point discrepancy for dilates of a convex body.
We give a novel algorithm for enumerating lattice points in any convex body, and give applications to several classic lattice problems, including the Shortest and Closest Vector Problems (SVP and CVP, respectively) and Integer Programming…
