The ball (or sphere) packing problem with equal balls, without any symmetry assumption, in a $3$-dimensional space of constant curvature was settled by B\"or\"oczky and Florian for the hyperbolic space $\HYP$ in \cite{BF64} and by proving…

In \cite{Sz17-2} we proved that to each saturated congruent hyperball packing exists a decomposition of $3$-dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$ into truncated tetrahedra. Therefore, in order to get a density upper bound for…
In this paper, we study the problem of hyperball (hypersphere) packings in $n$-dimensional hyperbolic space ($n \ge 4$). We prove that to each $n$-dimensional congruent saturated hyperball packing, there is an algorithm to obtain a…
Supergroups of some hyperbolic space groups are classified as a continuation of our former works. Fundamental domains will be integer parts of truncated tetrahedra belonging to families F1 - F4, for a while, by the notation of E. Moln\'{a}r…
In hyperbolic space density cannot be defined by a limit as we define it in Euclidean space. We describe the local density bounds for sphere packings and we discuss the different attempts to define optimal arrangements in hyperbolic space.
We formulate the problem of generating dense packings of nonoverlapping, non-tiling polyhedra within an adaptive fundamental cell subject to periodic boundary conditions as an optimization problem, which we call the Adaptive Shrinking Cell…
We determine the three hyperbolic 5-orbifolds of smallest volume among compact arithmetic orbifolds, and we identify their fundamental groups with hyperbolic Coxeter groups. This gives two different ways to compute the volume of these…
We analyze the general problem of determining optimally dense packings, in a Euclidean or hyperbolic space, of congruent copies of some fixed finite set of bodies. We are strongly guided by examples of aperiodic tilings in Euclidean space…
In this paper we determine new upper bounds for the maximal density of translative packings of superballs in three dimensions (unit balls for the $l^p_3$-norm) and of Platonic and Archimedean solids having tetrahedral symmetry. Thereby, we…
In this paper we study the problem of hyperball (hypersphere) packings in $3$-dimensional hyperbolic space. We introduce a new definition of the non-compact saturated ball packings and describe to each saturated hyperball packing, a new…

In this paper, we obtain a complete classification of compact hyperbolic Coxeter five-dimensional polytopes with nine facets.
Dense hard-particle packings are intimately related to the structure of low-temperature phases of matter and are useful models of heterogeneous materials and granular media. Most studies of the densest packings in three dimensions have…

Let $\Delta$ be the optimal packing density of $\mathbb R^n$ by unit balls. We show the optimal packing density using two sizes of balls approaches $\Delta + (1 - \Delta) \Delta$ as the ratio of the radii tends to infinity. More generally,…
Dense packings have served as useful models of the structure of liquid, glassy and crystal states of matter, granular media, heterogeneous materials, and biological systems. Probing the symmetries and other mathematical properties of the…
Motivated by modern applications like image processing and wireless sensor networks, we consider a variation of the famous Kepler Conjecture. Given any infinite set of unit balls covering the whole space, we want to know the optimal (lim…
A polytope in the hyperbolic space $\H^n$ is called an {\it ideal polytope} if all its vertices belong to the boundary of $\H^n$. We prove that no simple ideal Coxeter polytope exist in $\H^n$ for $n>8$.
We show that the 1-cusped quotient of the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$ by the tetrahedral Coxeter group $\Gamma_*=[5,3,6]$ has minimal volume among all non-arithmetic cusped hyperbolic 3-orbifolds, and as such it is uniquely determined.…
