Let π be a convex lattice polygon with b boundary points and c (≥ 1) interior points. We show that for any given c, the number b satisfies b ≤ 2c + 7, and identify the polygons for which equality holds.

A convex lattice polygon is a polygon whose vertices are points on the integer lattice and whose interior angles are strictly less than π radians. We define a(2n) to be the least possible area of a convex lattice polygon with 2n vertices. A method for constructing convex lattice polygons with area a(2n) is described, and values of a(2n) for low n are obtained.

The minimum area a(v) of a v–sided convex lattice polygon is known to satisfy . We conjecture that a(v) = cv3 + o(v3), for c a constant; we prove that , and that for some positive constant c, .

AbstractA self-avoiding polygon is a lattice polygon consisting of a closed self-avoiding walk on a square lattice. Surprisingly little is known rigorously about the enumeration of self-avoiding polygons, although there are numerous conjectures that are believed to be true and strongly supported by numerical simulations. As an analogous problemto this study, we considermultiple self-avoiding polygons in a confined region as a model for multiple ring polymers in physics. We find rigorous lower and upper bounds for the number pm×n of distinct multiple self-avoiding polygons in the m × n rectangular grid on the square lattice. For m = 2, p2×n = 2n−1 − 1. And for integers m, n ≥ 3,

Can one determine a centrally symmetric lattice polygon by its projections? In 2005, Gardner et al. proposed the above discrete version of Aleksandrov’s projection theorem. In this paper, we define a coordinate matrix for a centrally symmetric convex lattice set and suggest an algorithm to study this problem.

AbstractTwo graphs, the edge crossing graph E and the triangle graph T are associated with a simple lattice polygon. The maximal independent sets of vertices of E and T are derived including a formula for the size of the fundamental triangles. Properties of E and T are derived including a formula for the size of the maximal independent sets in E and T. It is shown that T is a factor graph of edge-disjoint 4-cycles, which gives corresponding geometric information, and is a partition graph as recently defined by the authors and F. Harary.
