Lascoux polynomials and subdivisions of Gelfand-Zetlin polytopes

We give a new combinatorial description for stable Grothendieck polynomials in terms of subdivisions of Gelfand-Zetlin polytopes. Moreover, these subdivisions also provide a description of Lascoux polynomials. This generalizes a similar result on key polynomials by Kiritchenko, Smirnov, and Timorin.
