Generalized Dehn-Sommerville relations for polytopes, spheres and Eulerian partially ordered sets
This paper generalizes the Dehn-Sommerville equations for simplicial spheres to related classes of objects. The underlying motivation is to understand the combinatorial structure of arbitrary…

Convex Polytopes and Unimodular Triangulations
The triangulation of a convex polytope is one of the most important topics in the classical theory of convex polytopes. In this chapter the modern treatment of triangulations of convex polytopes is…

A completely unimodal numbering of the m vertices of a simple d-dimensional polytope is a numbering 0, 1, . . . , m - 1 of the vertices such that on every k-dimensional face (2s ksd) there is exactly…
Primal—Dual Methods for Vertex and Facet Enumeration
TLDR
The known polynomially solvable classes of polytopes are extended by looking at the dual problems by proposing a new class of algorithms that take advantage of this phenomenon.

Minimax Equalities by Reconstruction of Polytopes
Given a quasi-concave-convex function f : X × Y → R defined on the product of two convex sets we would like to know if infY supX f = supX infY f . In [4] we showed that that question is very closely…
The Numbers of Edges of 5-Polytopes with a Given Number of Vertices
A basic combinatorial invariant of a convex polytope P is its f-vector $$f(P)=(f_0,f_1,\dots ,f_{\dim P-1})$$f(P)=(f0,f1,⋯,fdimP-1), where $$f_i$$fi is the number of i-dimensional faces of P.…

For convex d-polytope P let ft{P) equal the number of faces of P of dimension i, 0 < i < d 1. f(P) = (f0(P)9 . . . , fd^QP)) is called the f vector of P An important combinatorial problem is the…
The unimodality conjecture for convex polytopes

The maximum numbers of faces of a convex polytope
