Piecewise Euclidean structures (identified solid Euclidean polyhedra) on topological 3-dimensional manifolds and pseudo-manifolds are constructed so that they admit pseudo-foliations, a generalized type of foliation. The construction of…
This paper is concerned with algorithms and applications of decreasing minimization on an M-convex set, which is the set of integral elements of an integral base-polyhedron. Based on a recent characterization of decreasingly minimal…
Integer-valued elements of an integral submodular flow polyhedron $Q$ are investigated which are decreasingly minimal (dec-min) in the sense that their largest component is as small as possible, within this, the second largest component is…
An unfolding of a polyhedron is produced by cutting the surface and flattening to a single, connected, planar piece without overlap (except possibly at boundary points). It is a long unsolved problem to determine whether every polyhedron…
We construct a converging geometric iterated function system on the moduli space of ordered triangles, for which the involved functions have geometric meanings and contain a non-contraction map under the natural metric.
This paper studies the straight skeleton of polyhedra in three dimensions. We first address voxel-based polyhedra (polycubes), formed as the union of a collection of cubical (axis-aligned) voxels. We analyze the ways in which the skeleton…
A stacking operation adds a $d$-simplex on top of a facet of a simplicial $d$-polytope while maintaining the convexity of the polytope. A stacked $d$-polytope is a polytope that is obtained from a $d$-simplex and a series of stacking…
We study snapping and shaky polyhedra which consist of antiprismatic skeletons covered by polyhedral belts composed of triangular faces only. In detail, we generalize Wunderlich's trisymmetric sandglass polyhedron in analogy to the…
In this paper, we show how regular convex 4-polytopes - the analogues of the Platonic solids in four dimensions - can be constructed from three-dimensional considerations concerning the Platonic solids alone. Via the Cartan-Dieudonne…
We build a modified universal Kolyvagin system for the Galois representation attached to a Hida family of modular forms, starting from the big Heegner point Euler system of Longo--Vigni built in towers of Shimura curves. We generalize the…
The paper describes a construction of abstract polytopes from Cayley graphs of symmetric groups. Given any connected graph G with p vertices and q edges, we associate with G a Cayley graph of the symmetric group S_p and then construct a…
This paper introduces an algebraic combinatorial approach to simplicial cone decompositions, a key step in solving inhomogeneous linear Diophantine systems and counting lattice points in polytopes. We use constant term manipulation on the…
A new approach is proposed for reconstruction of images from Radon projections. Based on Fourier expansions in orthogonal polynomials of two and three variables, instead of Fourier transforms, the approach provides a new algorithm for the…
We show that every bounded hyperconvex Reinhardt domain can be approximated by special polynomial polyhedra defined by homogeneous polynomial mappings. This is achieved by means of approximation of the pluricomplex Green function of the…
We propose a construction of lattices from (skew-) polynomial codes, by endowing quotients of some ideals in both number fields and cyclic algebras with a suitable trace form. We give criteria for unimodularity. This yields integral and…
We describe a polynomial time algorithm that takes as input a polygon with axis-parallel sides but irrational vertex coordinates, and outputs a set of as few rectangles as possible into which it can be dissected by axis-parallel cuts and…
In this paper, we propose a topology optimization (TO) framework where the design is parameterized by a set of convex polygons. Extending feature mapping methods in TO, the representation allows for direct extraction of the geometry. In…
In this century, a square-tiled translation surface (an origami) is intensively studied as an object with special properties of its translation structure and its $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-orbit embedded in the moduli space. We generalize this…
In two series of papers we construct quasi regular polyhedra and their duals which are similar to the Catalan solids. The group elements as well as the vertices of the polyhedra are represented in terms of quaternions. In the present paper…
