This paper introduces modern geometric combinatorial technology from the theory of triangulations in order to derive results in toric symplectic geometry. In the main part of the paper we prove a number of properties of the space…

The projections of the lattices, may be used as models of quasicrystals, and the particular affine extension of the $H_2$ symmetry as a subgroup of $A_4$, discussed in the work, presents a different perspective to 5-fold symmetric…

We consider polygons with the following ``pairing property'': for each edge of the polygon there is precisely one other edge parallel to it. We study the problem of when such a polygon $K$ tiles the plane multiply when translated at the…

We prove the Verlinde conjecture in the following general form: Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra satisfying the following conditions: (i) The homogeneous subspaces of V of weights less than 0 are 0, the homogeneous subspace of V of…

We study Voronoi cells in the statistical setting by considering preimages of the maximum likelihood estimator that tessellate an open probability simplex. In general, logarithmic Voronoi cells are convex sets. However, for certain…

Each integrable lowest weight representation of a symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra g has a crystal in the sense of Kashiwara, which describes its combinatorial properties. For a given g, there is a limit crystal, usually denoted by…

Matchbox manifolds ${\mathfrak M}$ are a special class of foliated spaces, which includes as special examples exceptional minimal sets of foliations, weak solenoids, suspensions of odometer and Toeplitz actions, and tiling spaces associated…

Voronoi defined two polyhedral partitions of the cone of se\mi\de\fi\nite forms into L-type domains and into perfect domains. Up to equivalence, there is only one domain that is simultaneously perfect and L-type. Voronoi called this domain…

We compare two rational polyhedral admissible decompositions of the cone of positive definite quadratic forms: the perfect cone decomposition and the 2nd Voronoi decomposition. We determine which cones belong to both the decompositions,…

Generalizing results by Valette, Zamfirescu and Laczkovich, we will prove that a convex body $K$ is a polytope if there are sufficiently many tilings which contain a tile similar to $K$. Furthermore, we give an example that this can not be…

Let $X$ be a list of vectors that is totally unimodular. In a previous article the author proved that every real-valued function on the set of interior lattice points of the zonotope defined by $X$ can be extended to a function on the whole…

We prove that fairly general spaces of tilings of R^d are fiber bundles over the torus T^d, with totally disconnected fiber. This was conjectured (in a weaker form) in [W3], and proved in certain cases. In fact, we show that each such space…

A polyhedral norm is a norm N on R^n for which the set N(x)\leq 1 is a polytope. This covers the case of the L^1 and L^{\infty} norms. We consider here effective algorithms for determining the Voronoi polytope for such norms with a point…

Ellipsoids are a common representation for reachability analysis, because they can be transformed efficiently under affine maps, and allow conservative approximation of Minkowski sums, which let one incorporate uncertainty and linearization…

A Euclidean oriented matroid program yields a partial ordering of the cocircuits of its cocircuit graph. We show that every linear extension of that ordering yields a topological sweep and induces a recursive atom-ordering (a shelling of…

Some basic mathematical tools such as convex sets, polytopes and combinatorial topology, are used quite heavily in applied fields such as geometric modeling, meshing, computer vision, medical imaging and robotics. This report may be viewed…

In this paper, we present a new approach to obtain symmetric tiles with curved edges. Our approach is based on using higher-order Voronoi sites that are closed under wallpaper symmetries. The resulting Voronoi tessellations provide us with…

A plane tiling consisting of congruent copies of a shape is isohedral provided that for any pair of copies, there exists a symmetry of the tiling mapping one copy to the other. We give a $O(n\log^2{n})$-time algorithm for deciding if a…

In this note, we revisit an identity that Miller and Schmid showed in their article on a general Voronoi summation formula for $GL(n,\mathbb{Z})$ in 2009. For the proof, we mainly follow Cogdell and Piatetski-Shapiro's ideas in their work…

Tilings of the plane resemble the simplicial and other complexes from algebraic topology, but have not been studied from this perspective. We construct finite categories corresponding to polygons with labeled directed edges, and introduce…
