Quadratic h∗h^*-polynomial inequality

About 20 years old · traced to

Let Δ\Delta be an nn-dimensional lattice polytope whose h∗h^*-polynomial is quadratic, written as

hΔ∗(t)=1+h1∗t+h2∗t2.h_\Delta^*(t)=1+h_1^*t+h_2^*t^2.

Quadratic h∗h^*-polynomial conjecture. One has

h1∗≤3h2∗+4.h_1^*\leq 3h_2^*+4.

This is proposed as a more precise statement for quadratic h∗h^*-polynomials, refining the preceding volume-boundedness conjecture in that case. The source does not provide a resolution.
