Abstract

Given a graph $G$, the graph associahedron is a simple convex polytope whose face poset is based on the connected subgraphs of $G$. With the additional assignment of a color palette, we define the colorful graph associahedron, show it to be a collection of simple abstract polytopes, and explore its properties.
