Simplicial Eulerian Lattices

Lattices on simplicial partitions

In this paper, (d + 1)-pencil lattices on simplicial partitions in Rd are studied. The barycentric approach naturally extends the lattice from a simplex to a simplicial partition, providing a continuous piecewise polynomial interpolant over the extended lattice. The number of degrees of freedom is equal to the number of vertices of the simplicial partition. The constructive proof of this fact l...

Lattices on simplicial partitions which are not simply connected

In this paper, (d + 1)-pencil lattices on simplicial partitions in Rd, which are not simply connected, are studied. It is shown, how the fact that a partition is not simply connected can be used to increase the flexibility of a lattice. A local modification algorithm is developed also to deal with slight partition topology changes that may appear afterwards a lattice has already been constructed.

Et-Construction for Lattices, Spheres and Polytopes

We describe and analyze a new construction that produces new Eulerian lattices from old ones. It specializes to a construction that produces new strongly regular cellular spheres (whose face lattices are Eulerian). The construction does not always specialize to convex polytopes; however, in a number of cases where we can realize it, it produces interesting classes of polytopes. Thus we produce ...
