8 This section describes some application programs
9 provided by the \barvinok/ library,
10 available from {\tt http://freshmeat.net/projects/barvinok/.}
11 For compilation instructions we refer to the \verb+README+ file
12 included in the distribution.
15 Common option to all programs:\\
16 \begin{tabular}{lll}

22 \subsection{\texorpdfstring{\protect\ai[\tt]{barvinok\_count}}{barvinok\_count}}
24 The program \ai[\tt]{barvinok\_count} enumerates a
25 non-parametric polytope. It takes one polytope
26 in \PolyLib/ notation as input and prints the number
27 of integer points in the polytope.
28 The \PolyLib/ notation corresponds to the internal
29 representation of \ai[\tt]{Polyhedron}s as explained
30 in Section~\ref{a:existing}.
31 \index{input format!constraints}
32 The first line of the input contains the number of rows
33 and the number of columns in the \ai[\tt]{Constraint} matrix.
34 The rest of the input is composed of the elements of the matrix.
35 Recall that the number of columns is two more than the number
36 of variables, where the extra first columns is one or zero
37 depending on whether the constraint is an inequality ($\ge 0$)
38 or an equality ($= 0$). The next columns contain
39 the coefficients of the variables and the final column contains
40 the constant in the constraint.
41 E.g., the set
42 $S = \lb\, s \mid s \geq 0 \wedge 2 s \leq 13 \, \rb$
43 from \citeN[Example~38 on page~134]{Verdoolaege2005PhD}
44 corresponds to the following input and
45 output.
46 \begin{verbatim}
47 > cat S

51 1 -2 13
52 > ./barvinok_count < S

59 Vertex: [ 0 ]/1
60 Vertex: [ 13 ]/2
62 \end{verbatim}
63 \index{PolyLib@{\tt PolyLib}!version 5.22.0 or newer}
64 Note that if you use \PolyLib/ version 5.22.0 or newer then the output
65 may look slightly different as the computation of the \ai[\tt]{Rays}
66 may have been postponed to a later stage.
67 The program \ai[\tt]{latte2polylib.pl} can be used to
68 convert a polytope from \ai[\tt]{LattE} \shortcite{latte1.1}
69 notation to \PolyLib/ notation.
71 \index{input format!vertices}
72 As an alternative to the constraints based input, the input polytope
73 may also be specified by its \ai[\tt]{Ray} matrix.
74 The first line of the input contains the single word \ai[\tt]{vertices}.
75 The second line contains the number of rows
76 and the number of columns in the \ai[\tt]{Ray} matrix.
77 The rest of the input is composed of the elements of the matrix.
78 Recall that the number of columns is two more than the number
79 of variables, where the extra first columns is one or zero
80 depending on whether the ray is a line or not.
81 The next columns contain
82 the numerators of the coordinates and the final column contains
83 the denominator of the vertex or $0$ for a ray.
84 E.g., the above set can also be described as
85 \begin{verbatim}
86 vertices
88 2 3
90 1 0 1
91 1 13 2
92 \end{verbatim}
94 \subsection{\texorpdfstring{\protect\ai[\tt]{barvinok\_enumerate}}
95 {barvinok\_enumerate}}
97 The program \ai[\tt]{barvinok\_enumerate} enumerates a
98 parametric polytope as a \psp/ or \rgf/. It takes two polytopes in \PolyLib/
99 notation as input, optionally followed by a list of parameter
100 names.
101 The two polytopes refer to arguments \verb+P+ and \verb+C+
102 of the corresponding function. (See Section~\ref{a:counting:functions}.)
103 The following example was taken by \shortciteN{Loechner1999}
104 from \shortciteN[Chapter II.2]{Loechner97phd}.
105 \begin{verbatim}

240 \subsection{\texorpdfstring{\protect\ai[\tt]{barvinok\_enumerate\_e}}
241 {barvinok\_enumerate\_e}}
243 The program \ai[\tt]{barvinok\_enumerate\_e} enumerates a
244 parametric projected set. It takes a single polytope in \PolyLib/
245 notation as input, followed by two lines indicating the number
246 or existential variables and the number of parameters and
247 optionally followed by a list of parameter names.
248 The syntax for the line indicating the number of existential
249 variables is the letter \verb+E+ followed by a space and the actual number.
250 For indicating the number of parameters, the letter \verb+P+ is used.
251 The following example corresponds to
252 \citeN[Example~36 on page~129]{Verdoolaege2005PhD}.

307 {barvinok\_union}}
309 The program \ai[\tt]{barvinok\_union} enumerates a \ai{union} of
310 parametric polytopes. It takes as input the number of parametric
311 polytopes in the union, the polytopes in combined data and
312 parameter space in \PolyLib/ notation, the context in parameter space
313 in \PolyLib/ notation and optionally a list of parameter names.

321 \subsection{\texorpdfstring{\protect\ai[\tt]{barvinok\_ehrhart}}
322 {barvinok\_ehrhart}}
324 \sindex{Ehrhart}{quasi-polynomial}
325 The program \ai[\tt]{barvinok\_ehrhart} computes the
326 \ai{Ehrhart quasi-polynomial} of a polytope $P$, i.e., a quasi-polynomial
327 in $n$ that evaluates to the number of integer points in the dilation
328 of $P$ by a factor $n$.
329 The input is the same as that of \ai[\tt]{barvinok\_count}, except that
330 it may be followed by the variable name.
331 The functionality is the same as running \ai[\tt]{barvinok\_enumerate}
332 on the cone over $P$ placed at $n=1$.
334 Options:\\
335 \begin{tabular}{llp{0.7\textwidth}}
336 \ai[\tt]{--floor} & \ai[\tt]{-f} &

346 \subsection{\texorpdfstring{\protect\ai[\tt]{polyhedron\_sample}}
347 {polyhedron\_sample}}
349 The program \ai[\tt]{polyhedron\_sample} takes a polytope
350 in \PolyLib/ notation and prints an integer point in the polytope
351 if there is one. The point is computed using
352 \ai[\tt]{Polyhedron\_Sample}.
354 \subsection{\texorpdfstring{\protect\ai[\tt]{polytope\_scan}}
355 {polytope\_scan}}
357 The program \ai[\tt]{polytope\_scan} takes a polytope in
358 \PolyLib/ notation and prints a list of all integer points in the polytope.
359 Unless the \ai[\tt]{--direct} options is given, the order is based
360 on the \ai{reduced basis} computed with
361 \ai[\tt]{Polyhedron\_Reduced\_Basis}.
363 Options:\\
364 \begin{tabular}{llp{0.7\textwidth}}
365 \ai[\tt]{--direct} & \ai[\tt]{-d} &
366 list the points in the lexicographical order
367 \end{tabular}
369 \subsection{\texorpdfstring{\protect\ai[\tt]{lexmin}}{lexmin}}
371 The program \ai[\tt]{lexmin} implements an algorithm for performing
372 \indac{PIP} based on \rgf/s and provides an alternative for the
373 technique of \shortciteN{Feautrier88parametric}, which is based
374 on \ai{cutting plane}s \shortcite{Gomory1963}.
375 The input is the same as that of the \ai[\tt]{example} program
376 from \piplib/ \cite{Feautrier:PIP}, except that the value
377 for the ``\ai{big parameter}'' needs to be $-1$, since there is
378 no need for big parameters, and it does not read any options
379 from the input file.
