For small $n$, the known compact hyperbolic $n$-orbifolds of minimal volume are intimately related to Coxeter groups of smallest rank. For $n=2$ and $3$, these Coxeter groups are given by the triangle group $[7,3]$ and the tetrahedral group…
In 1900, as a part of his 18th problem, Hilbert proposed the question to determine the densest congruent (or translative) packings of a given solid, such as the unit ball or the regular tetrahedron of unit edges. Up to now, our knowledge…
In hep-th/9805025, a result for the symmetric 3-loop massive tetrahedron in 3 dimensions was found, using the lattice algorithm PSLQ. Here we give a more general formula, involving 3 distinct masses. A proof is devised, though it cannot be…
We determine the lowest volume hyperbolic Coxeter polyhedron whose corresponding hyperbolic polyhedral 3-orbifold contains an essential 2-suborbifold, up to a canonical decomposition along essential hyperbolic triangle 2-suborbifolds.
In this paper, we give a method to construct holonomy matrices of hyperbolic 3-manifolds by extending the known method of hyperbolic 2-manifolds. It enables us to consider hyperbolic 3-manifolds with nontrivial holonomies. We apply our…
The $S^2 \times R$ geometry can be derived by the direct product of the spherical plane $\bS^2$ and the real line $\bR$. J. Z. Farkas has classified and given the complete list of the space groups of $S^2 \times R$. The $S^2 \times R$…
Let $T$ be an infinite volume Coxeter tetrahedron in three dimensional real hyperbolic space ${\bf H}^{3}_{\mathbb R}$ with two opposite right-angles and the other angles are all zeros. Let $G$ be the Coxeter group of $T$, so…
It was conjectured by Ulam that the ball has the lowest optimal packing fraction out of all convex, three-dimensional solids. Here we prove that any origin-symmetric convex solid of sufficiently small asphericity can be packed at a higher…
In this paper we study $\times_0$-products of Lann\'er diagrams. We prove that every $\times_0$-product of at least four Lann\'er diagrams with at least one diagram of order $\ge 3$ is superhyperbolic. As a corollary, we obtain that known…
The cusped hyperbolic n-orbifolds of minimal volume are well known for $n \leq 9$. Their fundamental groups are related to the Coxeter n-simplex groups $\Gamma_n$ listed in Table 1. In this work, we prove that $\Gamma_n$ has minimal growth…
This paper is the second in a series whose goal is to understand the structure of low-volume complete orientable hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Using Mom technology, we prove that any one-cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold with volume <= 2.848 can be…
Hyperideal tetrahedra are the fundamental building blocks of hyperbolic 3-manifolds with geodesic boundary. The study of their geometric properties (in particular, of their volume) has applications also in other areas of low-dimensional…
We review the regular tilings of d-sphere, Euclidean d-space, hyperbolic d-space and Coxeter's regular hyperbolic honeycombs (with infinite or star-shaped cells or vertex figures) with respect of possible embedding, isometric up to a scale,…
The hyperuniformity concept provides a unified means to classify all perfect crystals, perfect quasicrystals, and exotic amorphous states of matter according to their capacity to suppress large-scale density fluctuations. While the…
We classify all the non-hyperbolic Dehn fillings of the complement of the chain-link with 3 components, conjectured to be the smallest hyperbolic 3-manifold with 3 cusps. We deduce the classification of all non-hyperbolic Dehn fillings of…
We prove that geodesic balls centered at some base point are isoperimetric in the real hyperbolic space $H_{\mathbb R}^n$ endowed with a smooth, radial, strictly log-convex density on the volume and perimeter. This is an analogue of the…
The hexagonal tiling honeycomb is a beautiful structure in 3-dimensional hyperbolic space. It is called {6,3,3} because each hexagon has 6 edges, 3 hexagons meet at each vertex in a Euclidean plane tiled by regular hexagons, and 3 such…
By using Klein's model for hyperbolic geometry, hyperbolic structures on orbifolds or manifolds provide examples of real projective structures. By Andreev's theorem, many 3-dimensional reflection orbifolds admit a finite volume hyperbolic…
We study the problem of high-dimensional multiple packing in Euclidean space. Multiple packing is a natural generalization of sphere packing and is defined as follows. Let $ N>0 $ and $ L\in\mathbb{Z}_{\ge2} $. A multiple packing is a set…
In this paper, we classify all of the five-sided three-dimensional hyperbolic polyhedra with one ideal vertex, which have the shape of a triangular prism. We show how to find each such polyhedron in the upper half-space model by considering…
