Abstract

We study the polytopes that arise from the convex hulls of stack-sorting on particular permutations. We show that they are simplices and proceed to study their geometry and lattice-point enumeration. First, we prove some enumerative results on $Ln1$ permutations, i.e., permutations of length $n$ whose penultimate and last entries are $n$ and $1$, respectively. Additionally, we then focus on a specific permutation, which we call $L'n1$, and show that the convex hull of all its iterations through the stack-sorting algorithm share the same lattice-point enumerator as that of the $(n-1)$-dimensional unit cube and lecture-hall simplex. Lastly, we detail some results on the real lattice-point enumerator for variations of the simplices arising from stack-sorting $L'n1$ permutations. This then allows us to show that $L'n1$ simplices are Gorenstein of index $2$.<br />Comment: 25 pages, 5 figures, 1 table, comments welcomed!
