We prove that the indicator function of a generalized polytope P is a linear combination of indicator functions of simplices whose vertices are algebraic vertices of P. We also show that the indicator function of any generalized polyhedron is a linear combination, with integer coefficients, of indicator functions of cones with apices at algebraic vertices and line-cones. The concept of an algebraic vertex is closely related to the Fourier–Laplace transform. We show that a point v is an algebraic vertex of a generalized polyhedron P if and only if the tangent cone of P, at v, has non-zero Fourier–Laplace transform."}],"publication_status":"published","publication":"Advances in Mathematics","type":"journal_article","date_updated":"2023-09-20T11:21:27Z","volume":308,"publication_identifier":{"issn":["00018708"]},"isi":1,"external_id":{"isi":["000409292900015"]},"status":"public","project":[{"call_identifier":"FP7","name":"International IST Postdoc Fellowship Programme","_id":"25681D80-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","grant_number":"291734"}],"page":"627 - 644","oa":1,"user_id":"c635000d-4b10-11ee-a964-aac5a93f6ac1","department":[{"_id":"HeEd"}],"article_processing_charge":"No","month":"02","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:50:34Z","citation":{"apa":"Akopyan, A., Bárány, I., & Robins, S.
