Polyhedral combinatorics of multi-index axial transportation problems (Q2482774)

For the \(p\)-index axial transportation polytope, the authors establish criteria for the minimum and maximum number of integer points and describe the class of polytopes for which the number of integer points coincides with the number of integer vertices. They also give three conjectures regarding the maximum number of vertices of the \(p\)-index axial transportation, the maximum number of integer vertices, and the structure of the nondegenerate polytopes with the maximum number of integer points.
