A Package for Analyzing Lattice Polytopes (PALP) is a set of C programs for
|
|
calculations with lattice polytopes and applications to toric geometry.
|
|
|
|
It contains routines for vertex and facet enumeration, computation of incidences
|
|
and symmetries, as well as completion of the set of lattice points in the convex
|
|
hull of a given set of points. In addition, there are procedures specialised to
|
|
reflexive polytopes such as the enumeration of reflexive subpolytopes, and
|
|
applications to toric geometry and string theory, like the computation of Hodge
|
|
data and fibration structures for toric Calabi-Yau varieties. The package is
|
|
well tested and optimised in speed as it was used for time consuming tasks such
|
|
as the classification of reflexive polyhedra in 4 dimensions and the creation
|
|
and manipulation of very large lists of 5-dimensional polyhedra.
|
|
|
|
While originally intended for low-dimensional applications, the algorithms work
|
|
in any dimension and our key routine for vertex and facet enumeration compares
|
|
well with existing packages.
