The maximum number of faces of the Minkowski sum of three convex polytopes

<p>We derive tight expressions for the maximum number of $k$-faces, $0\le{}k\le{}d-1$, of the Minkowski sum, $P_1+P_2+P_3$, of three $d$-dimensional convex polytopes $P_1$, $P_2$ and $P_3$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, as a function of the number of vertices of the polytopes, for any $d\ge{}2$.<br /&g...
