Lattice-free simplices with lattice width \(2d - o(d)\) (Q2164720)

This paper considers the properties of lattice-free convex bodies which are those that do not contain any integer points in their interior. Such bodies are flat with respect to the integer lattice and therefore the lattice width is an interesting property of lattice-free bodies. The authors propose and prove a new lower bound for the lattice width relating to a family of simplicities and present a number of useful lemmas. A suggested method for the construction of such simplicities is also presented. The article concludes with a list of open questions relating to the properties of lattice-free convex bodies.
