A geometric approach for the upper bound theorem for Minkowski sums of convex polytopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We derive tight expressions for the maximum number of $k$-faces, $0\le{}k\le{}d-1$, of the Minkowski sum, $P_1+...+P_r$, of $r$ convex $d$-polytopes $P_1,...,P_r$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, where $d\ge{}2$ and ...

A NOVEL LOOK AT THE MICHAEL LATTICE SUM RULES [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
We reconsider the derivation of the Michael lattice sum rules, which relate the energy and action stored in a flux tube of a quark-antiquark pair to the static interquark potential, and show that they require essential corrections.

The maximum number of faces of the Minkowski sum of three convex polytopes

open access: yesJournal of Computational Geometry, 2015
We derive tight expressions for the maximum number of $k$-faces, $0\le{}k\le{}d-1$, of the Minkowski sum, $P_1+P_2+P_3$, of three $d$-dimensional convex polytopes $P_1$, $P_2$ and $P_3$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, as a function of the number of vertices of the ...

On f-vectors of Minkowski additions of convex polytopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The objective of this paper is to present two types of results on Minkowski sums of convex polytopes. The first is about a special class of polytopes we call perfectly centered and the combinatorial properties of the Minkowski sum with their own dual. In

Matroid Polytopes and Their Volumes [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2009
We express the matroid polytope $P_M$ of a matroid $M$ as a signed Minkowski sum of simplices, and obtain a formula for the volume of $P_M$. This gives a combinatorial expression for the degree of an arbitrary torus orbit closure in the Grassmannian $Gr_{

Evaluating the boundary and covering degree of planar Minkowski sums and other geometrical convolutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Algorithms are developed, based on topological principles, to evaluate the boundary and “internal structure” of the Minkowski sum of two planar curves. A graph isotopic to the envelope curve is constructed by computing its characteristic points.

Aggregation of Demand-Side Flexibilities: A Comparative Study of Approximation Algorithms

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Traditional power grids are mainly based on centralized power generation and subsequent distribution. The increasing penetration of distributed renewable energy sources and the growing number of electrical loads is creating difficulties in balancing ...

A lattice point counting generalisation of the Tutte polynomial [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2020
The Tutte polynomial for matroids is not directly applicable to polymatroids. For instance, deletion- contraction properties do not hold. We construct a polynomial for polymatroids which behaves similarly to the Tutte polynomial of a matroid, and in fact

The maximum number of faces of the Minkowski sum of three convex polytopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We derive tight expressions for the maximum number of $k$-faces, $0\le{}k\le{}d-1$, of the Minkowski sum, $P_1+P_2+P_3$, of three $d$-dimensional convex polytopes $P_1$, $P_2$ and $P_3$ in $\reals^d$, as a function of the number of vertices of the ...
