The normalized volume of the Chan–Robbins–Yuen polytope (\(CRY_n\)) is the product of consecutive Catalan numbers. The polytope \(CRY_n\) has captivated combinatorial audiences for over a decade, as there is no combinatorial proof for its volume formula. In their quest to understand \(CRY_n\) better, the third author and Morales introduced two natural generalizations of it and conjectured that their volumes are certain powers of 2 multiplied by a product of consecutive Catalan numbers. Zeilberger proved one of these conjectures. In this paper we present proofs of both conjectures. |
