- We prove that the median hypersimplex $Δ_{2k,k}$ is Minkowski indecomposable, i.e. it cannot be expressed as a non-trivial Minkowski sum $Δ_{2k,k} = P+Q$, where $P\neq λΔ_{2k,k}\neq Q$. We obtain as a corollary that $Δ_{2k,k}$ represents a ray in the submodular cone (the deformation cone of the permutahedron). Building on the previously developed geometric methods and extensive computer search, we exhibit a twelve vertex, $4$-dimensional polytopal realization of the Bier sphere of the hemi-icosahedron, the vertex minimal triangulation of the real projective plane.
