Flag F-Vectors Of Polytopes With Few Vertices, Sarah A. Nelson
Flag F-Vectors Of Polytopes With Few Vertices, Sarah A. Nelson
Theses and Dissertations--Mathematics
We may describe a polytope P as the convex hull of n points in space. Here we consider the numbers of chains of faces of P. The toric g-vector and CD-index of P are useful invariants for encoding this information. For a simplicial polytope P, Lee defined the winding number wk in a Gale diagram corresponding to P. He showed that wk in the Gale diagram equals gk of the corresponding polytope. In this dissertation, we fully establish how to compute the g-vector for any polytope with few vertices from its …
