The cut polytope is the ({sub 2}{sup n})-dimensional convex polytope generated by all cuts of the complete graph on n nodes. One of the applications of the cut polytope, the polyhedral approach to the maximum cut problem, leads to the study of its facets which are known only up to n = 7 where they number 116,764. For n {<=} 7, we describe the skeleton of the dual of the cut polytope, in particular, we give its adjacencies relations and diameter. We also give similar results for a relative of the cut polytope, the cut cone, and new results on the size of the facets of the cut polytope.
