Hermite normal forms and -vectors

Abstract: Let

d e l t a (P c) = (d e l t a_{0}, d e l t a_{1}, ..., d e l t a_{d})

be the

d e l t a

-vector of an integral polytope

P c s u b s e t R R^{N}

of dimension

d

. Following the previous work of characterizing the

d e l t a

-vectors with

s u m_{i = 0}^{d} d e l t a_{i} l e q 3

, the possible

d e l t a

-vectors with

s u m_{i = 0}^{d} d e l t a_{i} = 4

will be classified. And each possible

d e l t a

-vectors can be obtained by simplices. We get this result by studying the problem of classifying the possible integral simplices with a given

d e l t a

-vector

(d e l t a_{0}, d e l t a_{1}, ..., d e l t a_{d})

, where

s u m_{i = 0}^{d} d e l t a_{i} l e q 4

, by means of Hermite normal forms of square matrices.
