Polytope approximation and the Mahler volume
The problem of approximating convex bodies by polytopes is an important and well studied problem. Given a convex body K in Rd , the objective is to minimize the number of vertices...

Zonotopes as bounding volumes
Zonotopes are centrally symmetric polytopes with a very special structure: they are the Minkowski sum of line segments. In this paper we propose to use zonotopes as bounding volum...
