Abstract: We study the $(n-1)$-dimensional volume of central hyperplane sections of the $n$-dimensional cube, $Q_n$. Our main goal is two-fold: first, we prove that the volume of the section perpendicular to the main diagonal of the cube is locally maximal for every $ngeq4$. Then, we derive that non-diagonal critical central sections exist in all such dimensions. The crux of the proofs is an estimate on the rate of decay of the Laplace-P'olya integral $J_n(r)=in{t}_{-infty}^{i}nftymathrm{sinc}^{n}tcdotcos(rt),mathrmdt$ that is proven by a combinatorial argument. This also yields improved bounds for Eulerian numbers of the first kind.
