Vertex-Maximal Lattice Polytopes Contained in 2-Simplices

Abstract

Motivated by the problem of bounding the number of rays of plane tropical curves we study the following question: Given n∈N and a unimodular 2-simplex what is the maximal number of vertices a lattice polytope contained in n· can have? We determine this number for an infinite subset of N by providing a family of vertex-maximal polytopes and give bounds for the other cases.
