Abstract

Existence of a regular unimodular triangulation of the configuration \Phi^+ \cup\,\{ (0, 0,\,{\ldots}\,, 0 ) \} in {\tt R}^n, where Φ+ is the collection of the positive roots of a root system \Phi\,{\subset}\,{\tt R}^n and where (0, 0,\,{\ldots}\,, 0 ) is the origin of {\tt R}^n, will be shown for Φ = Bin, Cin, Din and BCin. Moreover, existence of a unimodular covering of a certain subconfiguration of the configuration Ain+1+ will be studied.
