Some spherical coverings on S2 and their algebraic numbers

Metric Geometry 2020-08-12 v1

Abstract

Spherical coverings on the S2 sphere and their algebraic numbers are given for the putatively optimal global solutions for some n-congruent spherical caps with minimal radius to completely cover the S2 sphere. A few locally optimal solutions are also examined.
