Realizations of the Associahedron and Cyclohedron
We describe many different realizations with integer coordinates for the associahedron (i.e. the Stasheff polytope) and for the cyclohedron (i.e. the Bott-Taubes polytope) and compare them with the permutahedron of type A and B, respectively. The coordinates are obtained by an algorithm which uses a...

Zusammenfassung: | We describe many different realizations with integer coordinates for the associahedron (i.e. the Stasheff polytope) and for the cyclohedron (i.e. the Bott-Taubes polytope) and compare them with the permutahedron of type A and B, respectively. The coordinates are obtained by an algorithm which uses an oriented Coxeter graph of type An or Bn as the only input data and which specializes to a procedure presented by J.-L. Loday for a certain orientation of An. The described realizations have cambrian fans of type A and B as normal fans. This settles a conjecture of N. Reading for cambrian lattices of these types.
