We want to generalize this result by classifying 3-dimensional lattice polytopes without interior lattice points. The main result will be, that they are up to finite many exceptions either Cayley polytopes or there is a projection, which maps the polytope to the double unimodular 2-simplex. To every such polytope we associate a smooth projective surface of genus 0.12 pages, 3 figuresCombinatoricsAlgebraic Geometry52B20; 14M253-Dimensional Lattice Polytopes Without Interior Lattice Pointstext
