The Complex of Maximal Lattice Free Simplices

The simplicial complex K(A) is defined to be the collection of simplices, and their proper subsimplices, representing maximal lattice free bodies of the form {x : Ax <= b}, with A a fixed (n + 1) x n matrix. The topological space associated with K(A) is shown to be homeomorphic to R^{n}, and the space obtained by identifying lattice translates of these simplices is homeomorphic to the n-torus.
