Kalai's full flag conjecture for centrally symmetric polytopes

About 14 years old · traced to

Let PP be a centrally symmetric dd-dimensional polytope. A flag of PP is a chain of faces of PP, one in each dimension. Kalai's full flag conjecture. PP has at least 2d⋅d!2^d\cdot d! flags, with equality if and only if PP is a linear image of a Hanner polytope. The conjecture concerns the number of flags in centrally symmetric polytopes; the paper proves it for locally anti-blocking polytopes, while the general case remains open.
