Abstract
We give an upper bound on the number of vertices of the convex hull of the set of solutions to multivariate polynomial congruences modulo a prime p. The result is based on a combination of an estimate of G. Andrews on the number of vertices of integral polyhedra and a result of É. Fouvry about the distribution of zeros of multivariate polynomials in small boxes.
