压缩多面体是一个整凸多面体,它的所有拉三角剖分都是幺模的。一个(q1)-单形的每个顶点都是凸多面体P的一个顶点,如果P的每个面恰好包含q1个顶点,则称它是P中的特殊单形。证明了压缩多胞形P中存在特殊单形当且仅当其复曲面环K[P]是Gorenstein环。由此推论,若P是压缩的,则Gorenstein环面环K[P]的h-向量是单峰的。一个压缩多面体[10,p.337]是一个整凸多面体,它的所有“拉三角剖分”都是幺模的。(回想一下,整数凸多面体是凸多面体,其每个顶点都有整数坐标。压缩多面体的一个典型例子是Birkho多面体[10,例2.4(B)]。后来,在[6]中,提出了包括Birkho多面体在内的一大类压缩多面体。最近,Seth Sullivant [12]证明了一个令人惊讶的结果,即[6]中给出的类本质上包含所有压缩多面体。
A compressed polytope is an integral convex polytope all of whose pulling triangulations are unimodular. A (q 1)-simplex each of whose vertices is a vertex of a convex polytope P is said to be a special simplex in P if each facet of P contains exactly q 1 of the vertices of . It will be proved that there is a special simplex in a compressed polytope P if (and only if) its toric ring K[P] is Gorenstein. In consequence it follows that the h-vector of a Gorenstein toric ring K[P] is unimodal if P is compressed. A compressed polytope [10, p. 337] is an integral convex polytope all of whose \pulling triangulations" are unimodular. (Recall that an integral convex polytope is an convex polytope each of whose vertices has integer coordinates.) A typical example of compressed polytopes is the Birkho polytopes [10, Example 2.4 (b)]. Later, in [6], a large class of compressed polytopes including the Birkho polytopes is presented. Recently, Seth Sullivant [12] proved a surprising result that the class given in [6] does essentially contain all compressed polytopes.
