Regular integer lattices are characterized by k unit vectors that build up their generator matrices. These have rank k for D-lattices, and are rank-deficient for A-lattices, for E_6 and E_7. We count lattice points inside hypercubes…
Let $d \geq 0$ be an integer and let $P \subset \mathbb R^d$ be a $d$-dimensional lattice polytope. We call a polytope $M \subset \mathbb R^d$ such that $M \subset P$ and $M \sim P$ a {\itshape miniature} of $P,$ and it is said to be…
Let $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ be a convex body and let $\mathbf{w} \in \operatorname{int}(K)$ be an interior point of $K$. The coefficient of asymmetry $\operatorname{ca}(K,\mathbf{w}) := \min\{ \lambda \geq 1 : \mathbf{w} - K \subseteq…
We count primitive lattices of rank $d$ inside $\mathbb{Z}^{n}$ as their covolume tends to infinity, with respect to certain parameters of such lattices. These parameters include, for example, the subsapce that a lattice spans, namely its…
For $d \geq 4$ and $p$ a sufficiently large prime, we construct a lattice $\Gamma \leq {\rm PSp}_{2d}(\mathbb Q_p),$ such that its universal central extension cannot be sofic if $\Gamma$ satisfies some weak form of stability in…
Through tropical normal idempotent matrices, we introduce isocanted alcoved polytopes, computing their $f$--vectors and checking the validity of the following five conjectures: B\'{a}r\'{a}ny, unimodality, $3^d$, flag and cubical lower…
We study the Minkowski length L(P) of a lattice polytope P, which is defined to be the largest number of non-trivial primitive segments whose Minkowski sum lies in P. The Minkowski length represents the largest possible number of factors in…
We present some promising ideas to treat the problem of making completely rigorous the development of our expression for $\lambda_d(p)$ of the monomer-dimer problem on a $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice \begin{equation}\label{abstract1}…
We give a sharp upper diameter bound for a compact shrinking Ricci soliton in terms of its scalar curvature integral and the Perelman's entropy functional. The sharp cases could occur at round spheres. The proof mainly relies on a sharp…
Given a set $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, a hollow polytope has vertices in $S$ but contains no other point of $S$ in its interior. We prove upper and lower bounds on the maximum number of vertices of hollow polytopes whose facets are…
There are d-dimensional zonotopes with n zones for which a 2-dimensional central section has \Omega(n^{d-1}) vertices. For d=3 this was known, with examples provided by the "Ukrainian easter eggs'' by Eppstein et al. Our result is…
We construct several families of perfect sublattices with minimum $4$ of $\mathbb Z^d$. In particular, the number of $d-$dimensional perfect integral lattices with minimum $4$ grows faster than $d^k$ for every exponent $k$.
We consider the question of the largest possible combinatorial diameter among $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complexes on $n$ vertices, denoted $H_s(n, d)$. Using a probabilistic construction we give a new lower bound on $H_s(n, d)$ that is…
This short note extends a recent result (Bonifas et al, On sub-determinants and the diameter of polyhedra, Discrete Computational Geometry, 52, 2014) of an upper bound of the diameter of a convex polytope defined by an integer matrix to a…
A lattice $\Lambda$ is said to be an extension of a sublattice $L$ of smaller rank if $L$ is equal to the intersection of $\Lambda$ with the subspace spanned by $L$. The goal of this paper is to initiate a systematic study of the geometry…
The Ehrhart polynomial $ehr_P (n)$ of a lattice polytope $P$ gives the number of integer lattice points in the $n$-th dilate of $P$ for all integers $n\geq 0$. The degree of $P$ is defined as the degree of its $h^\ast$-polynomial, a…
The diameter of a strongly connected $d$-dimensional simplicial complex is the diameter of its dual graph. We provide a probabilistic proof of the existence of $d$-dimensional simplicial complexes with diameter $ (\frac{1}{d \cdot d!} -…
We determine the density of the largest sum-free subset of the lattice cube $\{1, 2, \dots, n\}^d$ for $d = 3$ and $d = 4$. This solves a conjecture of Cameron and Aydinian in dimensions $3$ and $4$.
Let $\Lambda$ be a lattice in $\R^n$, and let $Z\subseteq \R^{m+n}$ be a definable family in an o-minimal structure over $\R$. We give sharp estimates for the number of lattice points in the fibers $Z_T={x\in \R^n: (T,x)\in Z}$. Along the…
In $\mathbb{R}^n$, we establish an asymptotically sharp upper bound for the upper Minkowski dimension of $k$-porous sets having holes of certain size near every point in $k$ orthogonal directions at all small scales. This bound tends to…
