Abstract
W. Bruns and J. Gubeladze introduced a new version of algebraic K-theory where K-groups are additionally parameterized by polytopes of some type. In this paper we propose a concept of stable E-equivalence which can be used to calculate K-groups for high-dimensional polytopes. Polytopes which are stable E-equivalent have similar inner structures and isomorphic K-groups. In addition, for each polytope we define a Δ-graph which is an oriented graph being invariant under a stable E-equivalence.
