Dicings, Zonotopes, and Voronoi's conjecture on parallelohedra


In 1909 Voronoi conjectured that if some selection of translates of a polytope forms a facet-to-facet tiling of Euclidean space, then the polytope is affinely equivalent to the Voronoi polytope for some lattice. I show that Voronoi's conjecture holds for the special case where the parallelohedron is a zonotope.
