Abstract
The central objective of this paper is to discuss linear independence of translates of discrete box splines which we introduced earlier as a device for the fast computation of multivariate splines. The results obtained here allow us to draw conclusions about the structure of such discrete splines which have, in particular, applications to counting the number of nonnegative integer solutions of linear diophantine equations.
