We present several inequalities that hold among the coefficients of <jats:italic>f</jats:italic> <jats:sup>*</jats:sup>-vectors of lattice polytopes. These inequalities resemble striking similarities with existing inequalities for the coefficients of <jats:italic>f</jats:italic>-vectors of simplicial polytopes; e.g., the first half of the <jats:italic>f</jats:italic> <jats:sup>*</jats:sup>-coefficients increases and the last quarter decreases. Even though <jats:italic>f</jats:italic> <jats:sup>*</jats:sup>-vectors of polytopes are not always unimodal, there are several families of polytopes that carry the unimodality property. We also show that for any polytope with a given Ehrhart <jats:italic>h</jats:italic> <jats:sup>*</jats:sup>-vector, there is a polytope with the same <jats:italic>h</jats:italic> <jats:sup>*</jats:sup>-vector whose <jats:italic>f</jats:italic> <jats:sup>*</jats:sup>-vector is unimodal.","PeriodicalId":7335,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Geometry","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142222019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This generalizes a conjecture of Bezdek for <jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 3. We prove several results related to the conjecture for strictly convex origin symmetric bodies. Namely, if <jats:italic>K</jats:italic> ⊂ ℝ<jats:sup> <jats:italic>n</jats:italic> </jats:sup> is a strictly convex origin symmetric body that contains a revolution point <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> which is not the origin, then <jats:italic>K</jats:italic> is a body of revolution.
