Local Euler-Maclaurin expansion of Barvinok valuations and Ehrhart coefficients of a rational polytope

The Ehrhart Function for Symbols

We derive an Ehrhart function for symbols from the Euler-MacLaurin formula with remainder.

Computation of the highest coefficients of weighted Ehrhart quasi-polynomials of rational polyhedra

This article concerns the computational problem of counting the lattice points inside convex polytopes, when each point must be counted with a weight associated to it. We describe an efficient algorithm for computing the highest degree coefficients of the weighted Ehrhart quasi-polynomial for a rational simple polytope in varying dimension, when the weights of the lattice points are given by a polynomial function h. Our technique is based on a refinement of an algorithm of A. Barvinok [Computing the Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of a rational simplex, Math. Comp. 75 (2006), pp. 1449--1466] in the u…

Intermediate Sums on Polyhedra II: Bidegree and Poisson Formula

We continue our study of intermediate sums over polyhedra, interpolating between integrals and discrete sums, which were introduced by A. Barvinok [Computing the Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of a rational simplex, Math. Comp. 75 (2006), 1449-1466]. By well-known decompositions, it is sufficient to consider the case of affine cones s+c, where s is an arbitrary real vertex and c is a rational polyhedral cone. For a given rational subspace L, we integrate a given polynomial function h over all lattice slices of the affine cone s + c parallel to the subspace L and sum up the integrals. We study these …

Intermediate Sums on Polyhedra: Computation and Real Ehrhart Theory

We study intermediate sums, interpolating between integrals and discrete sums, which were introduced by A. Barvinok [Computing the Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of a rational simplex, Math. Comp. 75 (2006), 1449--1466]. For a given semi-rational polytope P and a rational subspace L, we integrate a given polynomial function h over all lattice slices of the polytope P parallel to the subspace L and sum up the integrals. We first develop an algorithmic theory of parametric intermediate generating functions. Then we study the Ehrhart theory of these intermediate sums, that is, the dependence of the res…

Three Ehrhart Quasi-polynomials

Let $P(b)\subset R^d$ be a semi-rational parametric polytope, where $b=(b_j)\in R^N$ is a real multi-parameter. We study intermediate sums of polynomial functions $h(x)$ on $P(b)$, $$ S^L (P(b),h)=\sum_{y}\int_{P(b)\cap (y+L)} h(x) \mathrm dx, $$ where we integrate over the intersections of $P(b)$ with the subspaces parallel to a fixed rational subspace $L$ through all lattice points, and sum the integrals. The purely discrete sum is of course a particular case ($L=0$), so $S^0(P(b), 1)$ counts the integer points in the parametric polytopes. The chambers are the open conical subsets of $R^N$ s…
