The Polynomial Hirsch Conjecture: Discussion Thread
This post is devoted to the polymath-proposal about the polynomial Hirsch conjecture. My intention is to start here a discussion thread on the problem and related problems. (Perhaps identifying further interesting related problems and research directions.) Earlier posts are: The polynomial Hirsch … Continue reading

The Polynomial Hirsch Conjecture: A proposal for Polymath3
This post is continued here. Eddie Kim and Francisco Santos have just uploaded a survey article on the Hirsch Conjecture. The Hirsch conjecture: The graph of a d-polytope with n vertices facets has diameter at most n-d. We devoted several … Continue reading
How the g-Conjecture Came About
This post complements Eran Nevo’s first post on the -conjecture 1) Euler’s theorem Euler Euler’s famous formula for the numbers of vertices, edges and faces of a polytope in space is the starting point of many mathematical stories. (Descartes came close … Continue reading
