Ohsugi–Hibi conjecture on unimodality of Gorenstein IDP polytopes

About 12 years old · traced to

Let P\mathcal{P} be a lattice polytope. It is Gorenstein if some positive integer dilate of P\mathcal{P} is reflexive, and it has the integer decomposition property if every lattice point in a positive integer dilate of P\mathcal{P} is a sum of lattice points from P\mathcal{P}. The h∗h^\ast-vector h∗(P)h^\ast(\mathcal{P}) is the coefficient vector in the numerator of the rational function representing the Ehrhart series of P\mathcal{P}. Ohsugi–Hibi conjecture. If P\mathcal{P} is a Gorenstein polytope that has the integer decomposition property, then h∗(P)h^\ast(\mathcal{P}) is unimodal. This conjecture concerns the shape of Ehrhart h∗h^\ast-vectors; it is attributed to Ohsugi and Hibi, and is a special case of conjectures of Brenti and Stanley on log-concavity and unimodality. It remains open according to the supplied source context.
