./wip/palp, Analyzing lattice polytopes

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.1, Package name: palp-1.1, Maintainer: jihbed.research

We describe our package PALP of C programs for calculations with lattice
polytopes and applications to toric geometry, which is freely available on
the internet
It contains routines for vertex and facet enumeration, computation of
incidences and symmetries, as well as completion of the set of lattice
points in the convex hull of a given set of points. In addition, there are
procedures specialised to reflexive polytopes such as the enumeration of
reflexive subpolytopes, and applications to toric geometry and string
theory, like the computation of Hodge data and fibration structures for
toric Calabi-Yau varieties
The package is well tested and optimised in speed as it was used for time
consuming tasks such as the classification of reflexive polyhedra in 4
dimensions and the creation and manipulation of very large lists of 5-
dimensional polyhedra
While originally intended for low-dimensional applications, the algorithms
work in any dimension and our key routine for vertex and facet enumeration
compares well with existing packages

Log message:
Drop superfluous PKG_DESTDIR_SUPPORT, "user-destdir" is default these days.
Mark packages that don't or might probably not have staged installation.
