Simple polyhedra are $2$-dimensional polyhedra and important objects in low-dimensional geometry and in the applications of {\it fold} maps, defined as smooth maps regarded as higher dimensional variants of Morse functions. For example,…

We investigate the question of whether any $d$-colorable simplicial $d$-polytope can be octahedralized, i.e., it can be subdivided to a $d$-dimensional geometric cross-polytopal complex. We give a positive answer in dimension $3$, with the…

Mr. C. Stephanos posed the following question in the Interm\'ediaire des Math\'ematiciens: "Do there exist polyhedra with invariant facets that are susceptible to an infinite family of transformations that only alter solid angles and…

Constructions of regular heptagon and triskaidecagon by trisection of an angle are well known. An elegant construction of the heptagon by S. Adlaj shows a 3-fold symmetry related to a Galois group. Based on the latter construction, in this…

We define a notion for unfolding smooth, ruled surfaces, and prove that every smooth prismatoid (the convex hull of two smooth curves lying in parallel planes), has a nonoverlapping "volcano unfolding." These unfoldings keep the base…

We prove two results on stacked triangulated manifolds in this paper: (a) every stacked triangulation of a connected manifold with or without boundary is obtained from a simplex or the boundary of a simplex by certain combinatorial…

A group-theoretical approach to the construction of quasiperiodic tilings of a Euclidean plane, possessing five-fold symmetry, is applied. Of the infinitely many of variants of quasiperiodic partitions of the plane, possessing the dihedral…

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…

In this paper we present a necessary conditions, that simple close geodesics on regular tetrahedra in the 3-dimensional hyperbolic space must satisfy. Furthermore, we explicitly describe three classes of simple closed geodesics on regular…

We investigate polyhedral $2k$-manifolds as subcomplexes of the boundary complex of a regular polytope. We call such a subcomplex {\it $k$-Hamiltonian} if it contains the full $k$-skeleton of the polytope. Since the case of the cube is well…

A tiling is a decomposition of a polygon into finitely many non-overlapping triangles. We prove that if a regular n-gon, $n \geq 5$, $n \neq 28$, can be tiled with similar right triangles, then one of the angles of these triangles is in…

In this paper we prove that it is possible to inscribe a regular crosspolytope (multidimensional octahedron) into a smooth convex body in $\mathbb R^d$, where $d$ is an odd prime power. Some generalizations of this statement are also…

We provide a remarkably simple algorithm to compute all (at most four) common tangents of two disjoint simple polygons. Given each polygon as a read-only array of its corners in cyclic order, the algorithm runs in linear time and constant…

We study the well-known problem of combinatorial classification of fullerenes. By a (mathematical) fullerene we mean a convex simple three dimensional polytope with all facets pentagons and hexagons. We analyse approaches of construction of…

This note proves that every polar zonohedron has an edge-unfolding to a non-overlapping net.

We present a novel method to perform numerical integration over curved polyhedra enclosed by high-order parametric surfaces. Such a polyhedron is first decomposed into a set of triangular and/or rectangular pyramids, whose certain faces…

It is well known that if there exists a finite set of convex bodies on the plane with non-overlapping interiors, then there is at least one "extremal" one among them, i.e., some one which can be continuously "taken away to the infinity"…

The number of apparent double points of an irreducible projective variety $X$ of dimension $n$ in $\mathbb{P}^{2n+1}$ is the number of secant lines to $X$ passing through a general point of $\mathbb{P}^{2n+1}$. This classical notion dates…

Wythoff's construction associates a uniform polytope to a Coxeter diagram whose vertices are decorated with crosses, which indicate the subgroup stabilizing a generic point. Champagne, Kjiri, Patera, and Sharp remarked that by associating…

It is well-known that the Euclidean plane has a standard 6-regular geodesic triangulation , and the unit sphere has a 5-regular geodesic triangulation, which is induced from the regular Dodecahedron, and the hyperbolic plane has an…
