Abstract: Abstract Given a generic m × n matrix A, the simplicial complex Κ(A) is defined to be the collection of simplices representing maximal lattice point free convex bodies of the form {x : Ax ⩽ b}. The main result of this paper is that the topological space associated with Κ(A) is homeomorphic with Rm−1 © 1998 The Mathematical Programming Society, Inc. Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
