abstract

An integral polytope is a polytope whose vertices have integer coordinates. A unimodular triangulation of an integral polytope in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is a triangulation in which all simplices are integral with volume $1/d!$. A classic result of Knudsen, Mumford, and Waterman states that for every integral polytope $P$, there exists a positive integer $c$ such that $cP$ has a unimodular triangulation. We strengthen this result by showing that for every integral polytope $P$, there exists $c$ such that for every positive integer $c' \ge c$, $c'P$ admits a unimodular triangulation. This answers a longstanding question in the area.

    For special toric degenerations of K3 surfaces, the intrinsic mirror and the universal toric degeneration mirror coincide after restricting to the minimal relative Gross-Siebert locus and basechanging by the polarization.
