Abstract: | Generalized permutahedra are the polytopes obtained from the permutahedron by changing the edge lengths while preserving the edge directions, possibly identifying vertices along the way. We introduce a “lifting” construction for these polytopes, which turns an n -dimensional generalized permutahedron into an (n+1)-dimensional one. We prove that this construction gives rise to Stasheff ?s multiplihedron from homotopy theory, and to the more general “nestomultiplihedra”, answering two questions of Devadoss and Forcey. |
