Polytopal realizations of finite type $\mathbf{g}$-vector fans (1703.09551v2)

Abstract: This paper shows the polytopality of any finite type $\mathbf{g}$-vector fan, acyclic or not. In fact, for any finite Dynkin type $\Gamma$, we construct a universal associahedron $\mathsf{Asso}{\mathrm{un}}(\Gamma)$ with the property that any $\mathbf{g}$-vector fan of type $\Gamma$ is the normal fan of a suitable projection of $\mathsf{Asso}{\mathrm{un}}(\Gamma)$.
