Stanley decomposition is a concept related to combinatorial geometry and enumerative combinatorics, specifically in the context of polyhedral combinatorics. It is named after Richard P. Stanley, a prominent mathematician who has made significant contributions to these fields. The Stanley decomposition provides a way to express a polyhedron, especially a convex polytope, as a combination of combinatorial objects, typically through the use of face lattices.
