About what?

Pick's theorem allows us to compute the area of any lattice polygon just by counting integer points. We will sketch a proof of Pick's theorem. It is now natural to ask if there are analogues in higher dimensions. This leads to the introduction of the Ehrhart polynomial and Ehrhart reciprocity.
