Thank you very much everyone! I've translated the terms along the lines of your suggestions, and found a few related papers for each term. word - слово crystal - кристалл root system - система корней lattice polytope - целочисленный выпуклый многогранник, integer convex polytope. I saw

Below my office mate's term for lattice polytope: lattice polytope is целочисленный многогранник (by the way, both polytope and polyhedron are translated in Russian by this single word). Cheers, Christian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

Sorry, I don't know Russian either. As a tiny step, I selected links to the appropriate english wikipedia page to at least clear potential ambiguity. Some have translations in other languages which might help. I am sure Sergey Fomin knows all those terms in case they exist in Russian - I

Hi Sage-Combinat devs, Anna Clawson is translating the Sage quick reference to Russian. She has some questions about how to translate several *algebraic combinatorics* terms. If anybody reading this knows combinatorics in Russian, or has a Russian colleague, could you clear up the below? -
