Lattice polytopes are called IDP polytopes if they have the integer decomposition property, i. e. , any lattice point in a kth dilation is a sum of k lattice points in the polytope. It is a long-standing conjecture whether the numerator of the Ehrhart series of an IDP polytope, called the h^*-polynomial, has a unimodal coefficient vector. In this preliminary report on research in progress we present examples showing that h^*-vectors of IDP polytopes do not have to be log-concave. This answers a question of Luis Ferroni and Akihiro Higashitani. As this is an ongoing project, this paper will be updated with more details and examples in the near future.
Hofscheier et al. (Sat,) studied this question.
