Batyrev–Nill codegree conjecture for Cayley decompositions

For a lattice polytope PP, define its codegree by

codeg(P)=minZ{ttP has interior lattice points}.\operatorname{codeg}(P)=\min_{\mathbb Z}\{t\mid tP\text{ has interior lattice points}\}.

For example, the unimodular simplex satisfies codeg(Δn)=n+1\operatorname{codeg}(\Delta_n)=n+1. Batyrev–Nill conjecture. There is a function f(n)f(n) such that every nn-dimensional polytope PP with codeg(P)f(n)\operatorname{codeg}(P)\geqslant f(n) decomposes as a Cayley sum of lattice polytopes. This conjecture concerns the relationship between large codegree and Cayley-sum structure; it was later proven by Haase, Nill, and Payne, who showed in addition that f(n)f(n) is at most quadratic in nn.
