Flexible suspensions with a hexagonal equator

Metric Geometry 2012-12-20 v1 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

We construct a flexible (non immersed) suspension with a hexagonal equator in Euclidean 3-space and study its properties related to the Strong Bellows Conjecture which reads as follows: if an immersed polyhedron \CalP\Cal P in Euclidean 3-space is obtained from another immersed polyhedron \CalQ\Cal Q by a continuous flex then \CalP\Cal P and \CalQ\Cal Q are scissors congruent.
