Although the definition is motivated by motivic integration, we study weighted $\\delta$-vectors from a combinatorial perspective. We present a version of Ehrhart Reciprocity and prove a change of variables formula. We deduce a new geometric interpretation of the coefficients of the Ehrhart $\\delta$-vector. More specifically, they are sums of dimensions of orbifold cohomology groups of a toric stack.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v6", "updated": "2008-06-15T08:29:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "52B20" ], "keywords": [ "weighted ehrhart theory", "orbifold cohomology groups", "toric stack", "ehrhart reciprocity", "variables formula" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier", "journal": "Adv.
