Fast Lattice Polytopes using PPL.#

The LatticePolytope_PPL() class is a thin wrapper around PPL polyhedra. Its main purpose is to be fast to construct, at the cost of being much less full-featured than the usual polyhedra. This makes it possible to iterate with it over the list of all 473800776 reflexive polytopes in 4 dimensions.

Note

For general lattice polyhedra you should use Polyhedron() with base_ring=ZZ.

The class derives from the PPL ppl.polyhedron.C_Polyhedron class, so you can work with the underlying generator and constraint objects. However, integral points are generally represented by \(\ZZ\)-vectors. In the following, we always use generator to refer the PPL generator objects and vertex (or integral point) for the corresponding \(\ZZ\)-vector.

EXAMPLES:

sage: vertices = [(1, 0, 0, 0), (0, 1, 0, 0), (0, 0, 1, 0), (0, 0, 0, 1), (-9, -6, -1, -1)]
sage: from sage.geometry.polyhedron.ppl_lattice_polytope import LatticePolytope_PPL
sage: P = LatticePolytope_PPL(vertices);  P
A 4-dimensional lattice polytope in ZZ^4 with 5 vertices
sage: P.integral_points()
((-9, -6, -1, -1), (-3, -2, 0, 0), (-2, -1, 0, 0), (-1, -1, 0, 0),
 (-1, 0, 0, 0), (0, 0, 0, 0), (1, 0, 0, 0), (0, 1, 0, 0), (0, 0, 0, 1), (0, 0, 1, 0))
sage: P.integral_points_not_interior_to_facets()
((-9, -6, -1, -1), (-3, -2, 0, 0), (0, 0, 0, 0), (1, 0, 0, 0),
 (0, 1, 0, 0), (0, 0, 0, 1), (0, 0, 1, 0))

Fibrations of the lattice polytopes are defined as lattice sub-polytopes and give rise to fibrations of toric varieties for suitable fan refinements. We can compute them using fibration_generator()

sage: F = next(P.fibration_generator(2))
sage: F.vertices()
((1, 0, 0, 0), (0, 1, 0, 0), (-3, -2, 0, 0))

Finally, we can compute automorphisms and identify fibrations that only differ by a lattice automorphism:

sage: square = LatticePolytope_PPL((-1,-1),(-1,1),(1,-1),(1,1))
sage: fibers = [ f.vertices() for f in square.fibration_generator(1) ];  fibers
[((1, 0), (-1, 0)), ((0, 1), (0, -1)), ((-1, -1), (1, 1)), ((-1, 1), (1, -1))]
sage: square.pointsets_mod_automorphism(fibers)
(frozenset({(-1, -1), (1, 1)}), frozenset({(-1, 0), (1, 0)}))

OUTPUT:

An embedding into a reflexive polytope. Depending on the output option slightly different data is returned.

  • If output='hom', a map from a reflexive polytope onto self is returned.

  • If output='polytope', a reflexive polytope that contains self (up to a lattice linear transformation) is returned. That is, the domain of the output='hom' map is returned. If the affine span of self is less or equal 2-dimensional, the output is one of the following three possibilities:

    polar_P2_polytope(), polar_P1xP1_polytope(), or polar_P2_112_polytope().

  • If output='points', a dictionary containing the integral points of self as keys and the corresponding integral point of the reflexive polytope as value.

If there is no such embedding, a LatticePolytopeNoEmbeddingError is raised. Even if it exists, the ambient reflexive polytope is usually not uniquely determined and a random but fixed choice will be returned.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.geometry.polyhedron.ppl_lattice_polytope import LatticePolytope_PPL
sage: polygon = LatticePolytope_PPL((0,0,2,1),(0,1,2,0),(2,3,0,0),(2,0,0,3))

False
integral_points()#

Return the integral points in the polyhedron.

Uses the naive algorithm (iterate over a rectangular bounding box).

OUTPUT:

The list of integral points in the polyhedron. If the polyhedron is not compact, a ValueError is raised.

sage: simplex.integral_points()
((-2, -3, -11, 5), (0, 0, -2, 5), (1, 2, 3, 5), (2, 3, 7, 5))

sage: point.integral_points()
((2, 3, 7),)

sage: empty = LatticePolytope_PPL()
sage: empty.integral_points()
()

Here is a simplex where the naive algorithm of running over all points in a rectangular bounding box no longer works fast enough:

sage: v = [(1,0,7,-1), (-2,-2,4,-3), (-1,-1,-1,4), (2,9,0,-5), (-2,-1,5,1)]
sage: simplex = LatticePolytope_PPL(v); simplex

Return the restricted automorphism group.

First, let the linear automorphism group be the subgroup of the Euclidean group \(E(d) = GL(d,\RR) \ltimes \RR^d\) preserving the \(d\)-dimensional polyhedron. The Euclidean group acts in the usual way \(\vec{x}\mapsto A\vec{x}+b\) on the ambient space. The restricted automorphism group is the subgroup of the linear automorphism group generated by permutations of vertices. If the polytope is full-dimensional, it is equal to the full (unrestricted) automorphism group.

INPUT:

  • vertex_labels – a tuple or None (default). The labels of the vertices that will be used in the output permutation group. By default, the vertices are used themselves.

OUTPUT:

A PermutationGroup acting on the vertices (or the vertex_labels, if specified).

sub_polytope_generator()#

Generate the maximal lattice sub-polytopes.

OUTPUT:

A generator yielding the maximal (with respect to inclusion) lattice sub polytopes. That is, each can be gotten as the convex hull of the integral points of self with one vertex removed.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.geometry.polyhedron.ppl_lattice_polytope import LatticePolytope_PPL
sage: P = LatticePolytope_PPL((1,0,0), (0,1,0), (0,0,1), (-1,-1,-1))
sage: for p in P.sub_polytope_generator():
....:     print(p.vertices())
((0, 0, 0), (0, 0, 1), (0, 1, 0), (1, 0, 0))
((-1, -1, -1), (0, 0, 0), (0, 1, 0), (1, 0, 0))
((-1, -1, -1), (0, 0, 0), (0, 0, 1), (1, 0, 0))
((-1, -1, -1), (0, 0, 0), (0, 0, 1), (0, 1, 0))
vertices()#

Return the vertices as a tuple of \(\ZZ\)-vectors.

OUTPUT:

A tuple of \(\ZZ\)-vectors. Each entry is the coordinate vector of an integral points of the lattice polytope.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.geometry.polyhedron.ppl_lattice_polytope import LatticePolytope_PPL
sage: p = LatticePolytope_PPL((-9,-6,-1,-1),(0,0,0,1),(0,0,1,0),(0,1,0,0),(1,0,0,0))
sage: p.vertices()
((-9, -6, -1, -1), (0, 0, 0, 1), (0, 0, 1, 0), (0, 1, 0, 0), (1, 0, 0, 0))

point(0/1, 0/1, 1/1, 0/1), point(0/1, 1/1, 0/1, 0/1), point(1/1, 0/1, 0/1, 0/1)}
vertices_saturating(constraint)#

Return the vertices saturating the constraint

INPUT:

  • constraint – a constraint (inequality or equation) of the polytope.

OUTPUT:

The tuple of vertices saturating the constraint. The vertices are returned as \(\ZZ\)-vectors, as in vertices().

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.geometry.polyhedron.ppl_lattice_polytope import LatticePolytope_PPL
sage: p = LatticePolytope_PPL((0,0),(0,1),(1,0))
sage: ieq = next(iter(p.constraints()));  ieq

sage: p.vertices_saturating(ieq)
((0, 0), (0, 1))
sage.geometry.polyhedron.ppl_lattice_polytope.line(cls, expression)#

Generator.line(type cls, expression)

Construct a line.

INPUT:

OUTPUT:

A new Generator representing the line.

Raises a ValueError` if the homogeneous part of ``expression represents the origin of the vector space.

Examples:

>>> from ppl import Generator, Variable
>>> y = Variable(1)
>>> Generator.line(2*y)
line(0, 1)
>>> Generator.line(y)
line(0, 1)
>>> Generator.line(1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: PPL::line(e):
e == 0, but the origin cannot be a line.
sage.geometry.polyhedron.ppl_lattice_polytope.point(cls, expression=0, divisor=1)#

Generator.point(type cls, expression=0, divisor=1)

Construct a point.

INPUT:

OUTPUT:

A new Generator representing the point.

Raises a ValueError` if ``divisor==0.

Examples:

>>> from ppl import Generator, Variable
>>> y = Variable(1)
>>> Generator.point(2*y+7, 3)
point(0/3, 2/3)
>>> Generator.point(y+7, 3)
point(0/3, 1/3)
>>> Generator.point(7, 3)
point()
>>> Generator.point(0, 0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: PPL::point(e, d):
d == 0.
