Abstract
LetP⊄ ℝd be a rational convex polytope with dimP=d such that the origin of ℝd is contained in the interiorP − ∂P ofP. In this paper, from a viewpoint of enumeration of certain rational points inP (which originated in Ehrhart's work), a necessary and sufficient condition for the dual polytopeP dual ofP to be integral is presented.
