The Hirsch Conjecture, posed in 1957, stated that the graph of a d-dimensional polytope or polyhedron with n facets cannot have diameter greater than n−d. The conjecture itself has been disproved, but what we know about the underlying question is quite scarce. Most notably, no polynomial upper bound is known for the diameters that were conjectured to be linear. In contrast, no polyhedron violating the conjecture by more than 25 % is known.This paper reviews several recent attempts and progress on the question. Some work is in the world of polyhedra or (more often) bounded polytopes, but some try to shed light on the question by generalizing it to simplicial complexes. In particular, we include here our recent and previously unpublished proof that the maximum diameter of arbitrary simplicial complexes is in nΘ(d), and we summarize the main ideas in the polymath 3 project, a web-based collective effort trying to prove an upper bound of type nd for the diameters of polyhedra and of more general objects (including, e.g., simplicial manifolds).
