Algorithmic verification criterion for the restricted asymmetric case
Algorithmic verification criterion for the restricted asymmetric case
Let be a not necessarily symmetric convex body. Suppose a specific combinatorial type of Delone decomposition is generated by primitive lattice polytopes . For a scaling factor , let be the vertices of .
Algorithmic verification criterion. The following conditions are equivalent: the configuration is a lattice covering realizing the specified combinatorial type; there exist a unimodular transformation and translations with
and there exists a unimodular transformation such that, for every ,
The criterion is proposed within the restricted asymmetric classification framework, where bounding the volumes of primitive Delone polytopes reduces the possible combinatorial types to a finite set and permits computational verification.
