Main

polymake is a tool to study the combinatorics and the geometry of convex polytopes and polyhedra. It is also capable of dealing with simplicial complexes, matroids, polyhedral fans, graphs, tropical objects, and other objects.

In this Wiki you can find the growing collection of documentation related to the mathematical software package polymake, as well as extra material supplied by the user community. Here you can download the software and find the extensions. To communicate with the polymake team, please use our Forum.

Most recent release 2.12: This "Easter Edition" was released on March 19, 2012. Please also try our perpetual beta; this might be required for some recent Linux versions.

  • Publications: a list of papers with a reference to polymake.
