The Upper Bound Conjecture (UBC for short) gives an explicit bound of the number of $i$-dimensional faces of $\Delta$. This question dates back to the beginning of the 1950’s, when the study of the efficiency of some linear programming techniques led to the following problem: Determine the maximal possible number of $i$-faces of d-polytope with $n$ vertices. The first statement of the UBC was formulated in 1957 by Theodore Motzkin. The original result state that the number of $i$-dimensional faces of a $d$-dimensional polytope with n vertices are bound by a certain explicit number $f i (C(n, d))$ where $C(n, d)$ is a cyclic polytope and $f_{i}$ denotes the number of $i$-dimensional faces of the simplex. We say that $P$ is a polytope if it is the convex hull of a finite set of points in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. Moreover, we say that $C(n, d)$ is a cyclic polytope if it is the convex hull of n distinct points on the moment curve $(t, t^{2},..., t{^d})$, $-\infty<t<\infty$. With this notation the Upper Bound Conjecture (for convex polytopes) states that cyclic polytope maximizes the number of $i$-dimensional faces among all polytopes.Zarzuela, Santiago2017info:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/2445/121133Màster Oficial - Matemàtica Avançadareponame:Dipòsit Digital de la UBinstname:Universidad de BarcelonaIngléscc-by-nc-nd (c) Catalin Dediu, 2017http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:diposit.ub.edu:2445/1211332026-05-27T06:46:51Z
