Ehrhart's polynomial for equilateral triangles in Z3\mathbb Z^3

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper we calculate the Ehrhart's polynomial associated with a 2-dimensional regular polytope (i.e. equilateral triangles) in Z3\mathbb Z^3. The polynomial takes a relatively simple form in terms of the coordinates of the vertices of the polytope and it depends heavily on the value dd and its divisors, where d=a2+b2+c23d=\sqrt{\frac{a^2+b^2+c^2}{3}} and (a,b,c)(a,b,c) (gcd⁡(a,b,c)=1\gcd(a,b,c)=1) is a vector with integer coordinates normal to the plane containing the triangle.
