Abstract

The toric ideals of 3脳3 transportation polytopes $\mathsf{T}_{\mathbf{rc}}$ are quadratically generated. The only exception is the Birkhoff polytope B 3.If $\mathsf{T}_{\mathbf{rc}}$ is not a multiple of B 3, these ideals even have square-free quadratic initial ideals. This class contains all smooth 3脳3 transportation polytopes.
