Example: The Schläfli Fan

This is an example RDMP for the article "The Schläfli Fan" by Michael Joswig, Marta Panizzut, and Bernd Sturmfels.

1. Data description

The input data consists of the $14,373,645$ regular unimodular triangulations of $3\Delta_3$. These are available as a Zenodo record. These will be processed by polymake and turned into new mathematical objects that are stored in the polyDB. Additional data consists of the code facilitating the above process.

2. Documentation and data quality

The input data consists of triangulations in the standard TOPCOM format.

The output data is documented by an arxiv preprint and the corresponding article. It is stored in the polymake file format which is based on JSON.

3. Storage and technical archiving the project

Our code is stored as a polymake extension on the polymake server. The resulting data is stored in the polyDB database.

4. Legal obligations and conditions

We are not aware of any special legal obligations regarding this project. Our code and data will be published under open licenses. Our code is licensed under the GPLv2 like polymake. Our data is licensed under the CC-BY license.

5. Data exchange and long-term data accessibility

The polyDB database is a database for objects from combinatorics and discrete mathematics, founded in 2013. It is intended for long-term hosting. The same holds for the extension repository on the polymake website.

6. Responsibilities and resources

Marta Panizzut is responsible for data handling during the project runtime. The polymake team, headed by Michael Joswig, is responsible for the long term data handling, including upgrading the data and code to run with newer polymake versions.
