In 1970, E. M. Andreev published a classification of all three-dimensional compact hyperbolic polyhedra having non-obtuse dihedral angles. Given a combinatorial description of a polyhedron, $C$, Andreev's Theorem provides five classes of…

Given a combinatorial description $C$ of a polyhedron having $E$ edges, the space of dihedral angles of all compact hyperbolic polyhedra that realize $C$ is generally not a convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^E$ \cite{DIAZ}. If $C$ has five or…

Recently, Connelly and Gortler gave a novel proof of the circle packing theorem for tangency packings by introducing a hybrid combinatorial-geometric operation, flip-and-flow, that allows two tangency packings whose contact graphs differ by…

In this paper we extend Alexandrov's sphere theorems for higher-order mean curvature functions to $ W^{2,n} $-regular hypersurfaces under a general degenerate elliptic condition. The proof is based on the extension of the Montiel-Ros…

We review several results related to the characterization of polyhedra in hyperbolic 3-space. In particular we present Rivin's theorem that gives a characterization of compact convex hyperbolic polyhedra, and Hodgson's proof of the Adreev's…

A ``hyperideal circle pattern'' in $S^2$ is a finite family of oriented circles, similar to the ``usual'' circle patterns but such that the closed disks bounded by the circles do not cover the whole sphere. Hyperideal circle patterns are…

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…
