Abstract

The secondary fan of a polytope stratifies the regular subdivisions of the polytope. We compute this fan for the hypersimplices Δ(2,7) and Δ(3,6). We also find new families of rays of the secondary fan of Δ(k,n) which do not lie on the respective Dressians.
In the special case k=2 our results are closely related to metric spaces on n points.

This is joint work with Michael Joswig and Lars Kastner.
