Every regular polytope has the remarkable property that it inherits all symmetries of each of its facets. This property distinguishes a natural class of polytopes which are called hereditary. Regular polytopes are by definition hereditary,…

Compact polyhedra of cubic point symmetry Oh, exhibit surfaces of planar sections (facets) characterized by normal vector families {abc} with up to 48 members each, compatible with Oh symmetry. We focus first on polyhedra confined by facets…

Polyhedral K\"ahler surfaces are a class of complex surfaces, which are flat everywhere except on a two-dimensional skeleton. They are defined as a generalisation of the "gluing a polygon side by side" construction of flat Riemann surfaces.…

We find all polyhedral graphs such that their complements are still polyhedral. These turn out to be all self-complementary.

We characterize the Archimedean solids among the convex uniform polyhedra via face embeddings into a regular Tetrahedron. This result has been listed without proof in the literature.

Relation Gelfand-Tsetlin $\mathfrak{gl}_n$-modules were introduced in [FRZ19], and are determined by some special directed graphs and Gelfand-Tsetlin characters. In this work we constructed polyhedra associated with the class of relation…

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…

An l-group G is an abelian group equipped with a translation invariant lattice order. Baker and Beynon proved that G is finitely generated projective iff it is finitely presented. A unital l-group is an l-group G with a distinguished order…

Nestohedra are a family of convex polytopes that includes permutohedra, associahedra, and graph associahedra. In this paper, we study an extension of such polytopes, called extended nestohedra. We show that these objects are indeed the…

Let an orthogonal polyhedron be the union of a finite set of boxes in $\mathbb R^3$ (i.e., cuboids with edges parallel to the coordinate axes), whose surface is a connected 2-manifold. We study the NP-complete problem of guarding a…

For a finite set $U$ of directions in the Euclidean plane, a convex non-degenerate polygon $P$ is called a $U$-polygon if every line parallel to a direction of $U$ that meets a vertex of $P$ also meets another vertex of $P$. We characterize…

If all tiles in a tiling are congruent, the tiling is called monohedral. Tiling by convex polygons is called edge-to-edge if any two convex polygons are either disjoint or share one vertex or one entire edge in common. In this paper, we…

We give a computer-based proof of the following fact: If a square is divided into seven or nine convex polygons, congruent among themselves, then the tiles are rectangles.

We prove two results about transforming any convex polyhedron, modeled as a linkage L of its edges. First, if we subdivide each edge of L in half, then L can be continuously flattened into a plane. Second, if L is equilateral and we again…

Given R\subset N, an (R,k)$-sphere is a k-regular map on the sphere whose faces have gonalities i\in R. The most interesting/useful are (geometric) fullerenes, i.e., (\{5,6\},3)$-spheres. Call \kappa_i=1 + \frac{i}{k} - \frac{i}{2} the…

We construct new examples of immersed minimal surfaces with catenoid ends and finite total curvature, of both genus zero and higher genus. In the genus zero case, we classify all such surfaces with at most $2n+1$ ends, and with symmetry…

Polytope numbers for a polytope are a sequence of nonnegative integers that are defined by the facial information of a polytope. Every polygon is triangulable and a higher dimensional analogue of this fact states that every polytope is…

A convex polygon is defined as a sequence (V_0,...,V_{n-1}) of points on a plane such that the union of the edges [V_0,V_1],..., [V_{n-2},V_{n-1}], [V_{n-1},V_0] coincides with the boundary of the convex hull of the set of vertices…
