Abstract:

Though the study of convex polytopes in Euclidean spaces of two or three dimensions is one of the oldest branches of mathematics, many of the more interesting properties of the polytopes have been discovered comparatively recently, and are still unknown to the majority of mathematicians. In this paper we shall survey the subject, mentioning some of the most recent results, and stating the more important unsolved problems. Author
