prodsumcube(d)

description

                 
 

These polytopes are built up by sum and product operations from cubes. They turn up as hard examples for incremental algorithms [11, 12] and as examples of zero-one polytopes with many facets [175]. The interesting thing about the latter result is that they turn out to have lots more facets if (any) one vertex is removed; this is the substance of [12].
