The face-number conjecture for perfect prismatoids
The face-number conjecture for perfect prismatoids
Let be a -dimensional perfect prismatoid. A -dimensional lattice Delaunay polytope is a convex polytope whose vertices belong to a lattice and which is the convex hull of the lattice points lying on an empty sphere. For each with , let denote the number of -dimensional faces of . The conjecture concerns the existence of a lattice Delaunay polytope of dimension satisfying the following inequalities.
Face-number conjecture. For every -dimensional perfect prismatoid , there exists a -dimensional lattice Delaunay polytope such that
for every with .
This is a proposed strengthening of the comparison between perfect prismatoids and lattice Delaunay polytopes in terms of all face numbers. The supplied source context does not establish whether the conjecture is open or resolved.
