Given a finite collection P of convex n-polytopes in RP^n (n>1), we consider a real projective manifold M which is obtained by gluing together the polytopes in P along their facets in such a way that the union of any two adjacent polytopes sharing a common facet is convex. We prove that the real projective structure on…

If we also require unit perimeter, our vectors of nn edge lengths form a convex polytope of dimension n3n-3, each facet of which consists of those nn-gons in which…
