For G a reductive group and T Ă B a maximal torus and Borel subgroup, Demazure modules are certain B-submodules, indexed by elements of the Weyl group, of the finite irreducible representations of G. In order to describe the T -weight spaces that appear in a Demazure module, we study the convex hull of these weights -the Demazure polytope. We characterize these polytopes both by vertices and by inequalities, and we use these results to prove that Demazure characters are saturated, in the case that G is simple of classical Lie type. Specializing to G " GL n , we recover results of Fink, Mészáros, and St. Dizier, and separately Fan and Guo, on key polynomials, originally conjectured by Monical, Tokcan, and Yong.
