A Finite Calculus Approach to Ehrhart Polynomials
A rational polytope is the convex hull of a finite set of points in R[superscript d] with rational coordinates. Given a rational polytope P⊆R[superscript d], Ehrhart proved that, for t∈Z≥[subscript 0[, the function #(tP∩Z[superscript d]) agrees with a quasi-polynomial L[subscript P](t), called the E...
