Inequalities and Ehrhart 𝛿-vectors

A Stapledon - Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 2009 - ams.org
For any lattice polytope $ P $, we consider an associated polynomial $\bar {\delta} _ {P}(t) $
and describe its decomposition into a sum of two polynomials satisfying certain symmetry …

Unimodality problems in Ehrhart theory

B Braun - Recent trends in combinatorics, 2016 - Springer
Ehrhart theory is the study of sequences recording the number of integer points in non-
negative integral dilates of rational polytopes. For a given lattice polytope, this sequence is …

Examples and counterexamples in Ehrhart theory

Ehrhart polynomials and h-polynomials satisfy under various assumptions. We pay …

Unimodality questions for integrally closed lattice polytopes

J Schepers, L Van Langenhoven - Annals of Combinatorics, 2013 - Springer
It is a famous open question whether every integrally closed reflexive polytope has a
unimodal Ehrhart δ-vector. We generalize this question to arbitrary integrally closed lattice …

On positivity of Ehrhart polynomials

F Liu - Recent trends in algebraic combinatorics, 2019 - Springer
Ehrhart discovered that the function that counts the number of lattice points in dilations of an
integral polytope is a polynomial. We call the coefficients of this polynomial Ehrhart …
