This article focuses on the dynamics of the different tridimensional principal slices of the multicomplex Multibrot sets. First, we define an equivalence relation between those slices. Then, we characterize them in order to establish…
In this article, we give the exact interval of the cross section of the so called Mandelbric set generated by the polynomial $z^3+c$ where $z$ and $c$ are complex numbers. Following that result, we show that the Mandelbric defined on the…
The Platonic solids is the name traditionally given to the five regular convex polyhedra, namely the tetradron, the octahedron, the cube, the icosahedron and the dodecahedron. Perhaps strongly boosted by the towering historical influence of…
Extending previous results on a characterization of all equilateral triangle in space having vertices with integer coordinates ("in $\mathbb Z^3$"), we look at the problem of characterizing all regular polyhedra (Platonic Solids) with the…
We call a 3-manifold Platonic if it can be decomposed into isometric Platonic solids. Generalizing an earlier publication by the author and others where this was done in case of the hyperbolic ideal tetrahedron, we give a census of…
In this paper, we generalize the Mandelbrot set using quaternions and spherical coordinates. In particular, we use pure quaternions to define a spherical product. This product, which is inspired by the product of complex numbers, add the…
Regular polytopes, the generalization of the five Platonic solids in 3 space dimensions, exist in arbitrary dimension $n\geq-1$; now in {\rm dim}. 2, 3 and 4 there are \emph{extra} polytopes, while in general dimensions only the…
We show that if a cusped hyperbolic manifold is Platonic, i.e., can be decomposed into isometric Platonic solids, it can also be decomposed into geodesic ideal tetrahedra.
There are three generalizations of the Platonic solids that exist in all dimensions, namely the hypertetrahedron, the hypercube, and the hyperoctahedron, with the latter two being dual. Conformal field theories with the associated symmetry…
Hyperbolic numbers are a variation of complex numbers, but their dynamics is quite different. The hyperbolic Mandelbrot set for quadratic functions over hyperbolic numbers is simply a filled square, and the filled Julia set for hyperbolic…
In this article, we give the exact interval of the cross section of the Multibrot sets generated by the polynomial $z^p+c$ where $z$ and $c$ are complex numbers and $p > 2$ is an odd integer. Furthermore, we show that the same Multibrots…
Generalizing the octahedral configuration of six congruent cylinders touching the unit sphere, we exhibit configurations of congruent cylinders associated to a pair of dual Platonic bodies.
Skeletal polyhedra and polygonal complexes in ordinary Euclidean 3-space are finite or infinite 3-periodic structures with interesting geometric, combinatorial, and algebraic properties. They can be viewed as finite or infinite 3-periodic…
Icosahedron and dodecahedron can be dissected into tetrahedral tiles projected from 3D-facets of the Delone polytopes representing the deep and shallow holes of the root lattice D_6. The six fundamental tiles of tetrahedra of edge lengths 1…
We investigate the folding problem that asks if a polygon P can be folded to a polyhedron Q for given P and Q. Recently, an efficient algorithm for this problem has been developed when Q is a box. We extend this idea to regular polyhedra,…
In this paper we try to find examples of integrable natural Hamiltonian systems on the sphere $S^2$ with the symmetries of each Platonic polyhedra. Although some of these systems are known, their expression is extremely complicated; we try…
The determination of the densest packings of regular tetrahedra (one of the five Platonic solids) is attracting great attention as evidenced by the rapid pace at which packing records are being broken and the fascinating packing structures…
Working within the polynomial quadratic family, we introduce a new point of view on bifurcations which naturally allows to see the seat of bifurcations as the projection of a Julia set of a complex dynamical system in dimension three. We…
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 show that several classes of polyhedra are joined by a sequence of O(1) refolding steps, where each refolding step unfolds the current polyhedron (allowing cuts anywhere on the surface and allowing overlap) and folds that unfolding into…
