Some geometric probability problems involving the Eulerian numbers.
The aim of this paper is to give a classification of the right-angled hyperbolic hexagons in the real hyperbolic space , by using a quaternionic distance between geodesics in .
In 1994, Sturmfels gave a polyhedral version of the Cayley Trick of elimination theory: he established an order-preserving bijection between the posets of coherent mixed subdivisions of a Minkowski sum of point configurations and of coherent polyhedral subdivisions of the associated Cayley embedding . In this paper we extend this correspondence in a natural way to cover also non-coherent subdivisions. As an application, we show that the Cayley Trick combined with results of Santos on subdivisions...
We design a method of decomposing convex polytopes into simpler polytopes. This decomposition yields a way of calculating exactly the volume of the polytope, or, more generally, multiple integrals over the polytope, which is equivalent to the way suggested in Schechter, based on Fourier-Motzkin elimination (Schrijver). Our method is applicable for finding uniform decompositions of certain natural families of polytopes. Moreover, this allows us to find algorithmically an analytic expression for the...
