In the analysis of three-dimensional biological microstructures such as organoids, microscopy frequently yields two-dimensional optical sections without access to their orientation. Motivated by the question of whether such random planar…

We systematically investigate properties of various triangle centers (such as orthocenter or incenter) located on the four faces of a tetrahedron. For each of six types of tetrahedra, we examine over 100 centers located on the four faces of…

We define and investigate a new three-parameter family of graphs that further generalizes the Fibonacci and metallic cubes. Namely, the number of vertices in this family of graphs satisfies Horadam recurrence, a linear recurrence of second…

In this thesis, we use normal surface theory to understand certain properties of minimal triangulations of compact orientable 3-manifolds. We describe the collapsing process of normal 2-spheres and disks. Using some geometrical…

Building on a classical solution to the pentagon equation, constructed earlier by the author and E.V. Martyushev and related to the flat geometry invariant under the group SL(2), we construct an algebraic complex corresponding to a…

We construct a highly-symmetric periodic orbit of eight bodies in three dimensions. In this orbit, each body collides with its three nearest neighbors in a regular periodic fashion. Regularization of the collisions in the orbit is achieved…

We have determined the three-dimensional structure of the Magellanic Clouds and Magellanic Bridge using over $9\,000$ Classical Cepheids (CCs) and almost $23\,000$ RR~Lyrae (RRL) stars from the fourth phase of the OGLE project. For the CCs…

We conclude the construction of the algebraic complex, consisting of spaces of differentials of Euclidean metric values, for four-dimensional piecewise-linear manifolds. Assuming that the complex is acyclic, we investigate how its torsion…

We study equilibrium properties of a system of particles in two dimensions, interacting with pair and three body potentials, which undergoes a structural transition from a square to a rhombic lattice and thus constitutes a simple model for…

Smooth tropical cubic surfaces are parametrized by maximal cones in the unimodular secondary fan of the triple tetrahedron. There are $344\, 843 \,867$ such cones, organized into a database of $14\,373\,645$ symmetry classes. The Schl\"afli…

Consider a 3$-$dimensional manifold $N$ obtained by gluing a finite number of ideal hyperbolic tetrahedra via isometries along their faces. By varying the isometry type of each tetrahedron but keeping fixed the gluing pattern we define a…

We identify and study a class of hyperbolic 3-manifolds (which we call Macfarlane manifolds) whose quaternion algebras admit a geometric interpretation analogous to Hamilton's classical model for Euclidean rotations. We characterize these…

We consider the problem of enumerating integer tetrahedra of fixed perimeter (sum of side-lengths) and/or diameter (maximum side-length), up to congruence. As we will see, this problem is considerably more difficult than the corresponding…

Mandelbrot set arose from the pioneering work of French mathematician Gaston Julia in the field of complex dynamics at the beginning of the 20th century. French-American mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot used computers to calculate iterations…

Tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) oxides are one of the most important classes of ferroelectrics. Many of these framework structures undergo ferroelastic transformations related to octahedron tilting deformations. Such tilting deformations…

In this study, we investigate the stability and solid fraction of columns comprised of highly non-convex particles. These particles are constructed by extruding arms onto the faces of Platonic solids, a configuration we term \emph{Platonic…

We show that every orthogonal polyhedron homeomorphic to a sphere can be unfolded without overlap while using only polynomially many (orthogonal) cuts. By contrast, the best previous such result used exponentially many cuts. More precisely,…

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…

We give new proofs that the Mandelbrot set is locally connected at every Misiurewicz point and at every point on the boundary of a hyperbolic component. The idea is to show ``shrinking of puzzle pieces'' without using specific puzzles.…

In this article we review some problems in physics, chemistry and mathematics that lead naturally to a class of polyhedra which include the Platonic solids. Examples include the study of electrons on a sphere, cages of carbon atoms, central…
