  • Abstract
    A lattice Delaunay polytope P is called perfect if its Delaunay sphere is the only ellipsoid circumscribed about P. We present a new algorithm for finding perfect Delaunay polytopes. Our method overcomes the major shortcomings of the previously used method [Du05]. We have implemented and used our algorithm for finding perfect Delaunay polytopes in dimensions 6, 7, 8. Our findings lead to a new conjecture that sheds light on the structure of lattice Delaunay tilings.
