We show that, for every set of $n$ points in the $d$-dimensional unit cube, there is an empty axis-parallel box of volume at least $Omega(d/n)$ as $ntoinfty$ and $d$ is fixed. In the opposite direction, we give a construction without an empty axis-parallel box of volume $O(d^2log d/n)$. These improve on the previous best bounds of $Omega(log d/n)$ and $O(2^{7d}/n)$ respectively.

We prove the following generalised empty pentagon theorem: for every integer $ell geq 2$, every sufficiently large set of points in the plane contains $ell$ collinear points or an empty pentagon. As an application, we settle the next open case of the big line or big clique conjecture of Kara, Por, and Wood [emph{Discrete Comput. Geom.} 34(3):497--506, 2005].
For a positive integer $d$, the $d$-dimensional Chebyshev-Frolov lattice is the $mathbb{Z}$-lattice in $mathbb{R}^d$ generated by the Vandermonde matrix associated to the roots of the $d$-dimensional Chebyshev polynomial. It is important to enumerate the points from the Chebyshev-Frolov lattices in axis-parallel boxes when $d = 2^n$ for a non-negative integer $n$, since the points are used for the nodes of Frolovs cubature formula, which achieves the optimal rate of convergence for many spaces of functions with bounded mixed derivatives and compact support. The existing enumeration algorithm for such points by Kacwin, Oettershagen and Ullrich is efficient up to dimension $d=16$. In this paper we suggest a new enumeration algorithm of such points for $d=2^n$, efficient up to $d=32$.
An empty simplex is a lattice simplex with only its vertices as lattice points. Their classification in dimension three was completed by White in 1964. In dimension four, the same task was started in 1988 by Mori, Morrison, and Morrison, with their m otivation coming from the close relationship between empty simplices and terminal quotient singularities. They conjectured a classification of empty simplices of prime volume, modulo finitely many exceptions. Their conjecture was proved by Sankaran (1990) with a simplified proof by Bober (2009). The same classification was claimed by Barile et al. in 2011 for simplices of non-prime volume, but this statement was proved wrong by Blanco et al. (2016+). In this article we complete the classification of $4$-dimensional empty simplices. In doing so we correct and complete the classification claimed by Barile et al., and we also compute all the finitely many exceptions, by first proving an upper bound for their volume. The whole classification has: - One $3$-parameter family, consisting of simplices of width equal to one. - Two $2$-parameter families (the one in Mori et al., plus a second new one). - Forty-six $1$-parameter families (the 29 in Mori et al., plus 17 new ones). - $2461$ individual simplices not belonging to the above families, with volumes ranging between 29 and 419. We characterize the infinite families of empty simplices in terms of lower dimensional point configurations that they project to, with techniques that can be applied to higher dimensions and larger classes of lattice polytopes.
A lattice $d$-simplex is the convex hull of $d+1$ affinely independent integer points in ${mathbb R}^d$. It is called empty if it contains no lattice point apart of its $d+1$ vertices. The classification of empty $3$-simplices is known since 1964 (Wh ite), based on the fact that they all have width one. But for dimension $4$ no complete classification is known. Haase and Ziegler (2000) enumerated all empty $4$-simplices up to determinant 1000 and based on their results conjectured that after determinant $179$ all empty $4$-simplices have width one or two. We prove this conjecture as follows: - We show that no empty $4$-simplex of width three or more can have determinant greater than 5058, by combining the recent classification of hollow 3-polytopes (Averkov, Krumpelmann and Weltge, 2017) with general methods from the geometry of numbers. - We continue the computations of Haase and Ziegler up to determinant 7600, and find that no new $4$-simplices of width larger than two arise. In particular, we give the whole list of empty $4$-simplices of width larger than two, which is as computed by Haase and Ziegler: There is a single empty $4$-simplex of width four (of determinant 101), and 178 empty $4$-simplices of width three, with determinants ranging from 41 to 179.
