Abstract

We develop a procedure for the complete computational enumeration of lattice $3$-polytopes of width larger than one, up to any given number of lattice points. We also implement an algorithm for doing this and enumerate those with at most eleven lattice points (there are 216,453 of them). In order to achieve this we prove that if $P$ is a lattice 3-polytope of width larger than one and with at least seven lattice points then it fits in one of three categories that we call boxed, spiked and merged. Boxed polytopes have at most 11 lattice points; in particular they are finitely many, and we enumerate them completely with computer help. Spiked polytopes are infinitely many but admit a quite precise description (and enumeration). Merged polytopes are computed as a union (merging) of two polytopes of width larger than one and strictly smaller number of lattice points.
