相关论文: The Dehn invariants of the Bricard octahedra

We prove that the Dehn invariant of any flexible polyhedron in Euclidean space of dimension greater than or equal to 3 is constant during the flexion. In dimensions 3 and 4 this implies that any flexible polyhedron remains scissors…

We discuss some recent results on flexible polyhedra and the bellows conjecture, which claims that the volume of any flexible polyhedron is constant during the flexion. Also, we survey main methods and several open problems in this area.

The bellows conjecture claims that the volume of any flexible polyhedron of dimension 3 or higher is constant during the flexion. The bellows conjecture was proved for flexible polyhedra in the Euclidean spaces of dimensions 3 and higher,…

A flexible polyhedron in an n-dimensional space of constant curvature, namely, in the Euclidean space, or in the Lobachevsky space, or in the sphere, is a polyhedron with rigid (n-1)-dimensional faces and hinges at (n-2)-dimensional faces.…

We construct a flexible (non immersed) suspension with a hexagonal equator in Euclidean 3-space and study its properties related to the Strong Bellows Conjecture which reads as follows: if an immersed polyhedron $\Cal P$ in Euclidean…

In 2014 the author showed that in the three-dimensional spherical space, alongside with three classical types of flexible octahedra constructed by Bricard, there exists a new type of flexible octahedra, which was called exotic. In the…

We demonstrate the construction of several families of flexible polyhedra by extending Bricard octahedra to form larger composite flexible polyhedra. These flexible polyhedra are of genus 0 and 1, have dihedral angles that are non-constant…

We study oriented connected closed polyhedral surfaces with non-degenerate triangular faces in three-dimensional Euclidean space, calling them polyhedra for short. A polyhedron is called flexible if its spatial shape can be changed…

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…

For flexibility of an octahedron we find necessary metric conditions in terms of edge lengths. These conditions yield a new description of Bricard's octahedra, suitable for solving some problems in metric geometry of octahedra, in…

We construct five types of polyhedra by generalizing the description of Bricard octahedra and applying the generalizations to polyhedral suspensions. The resulting polyhedra are flexible, are of genus 0, exhibit self-intersections, have…

A polyhedron is flexible if it can be continuously deformed preserving the shape and dimensions of every its face. In the late 1970's Klaus Steffen constructed a sphere-homeomorphic embedded flexible polyhedron with triangular faces and…

The following conjecture on the deformation invariance of plurigenera is proved. For a smooth projective holomorphic family of compact complex manifolds over the open unit 1-disk such that all the fibers are of general type, every…

In the end of the 19th century Bricard discovered a phenomenon of flexible polyhedra, that is, polyhedra with rigid faces and hinges at edges that admit non-trivial flexes. One of the most important results in this field is a theorem of…

We use degeneration formula to study the change of stable pair invariants of 3-folds under blow-ups and obtain some closed blow-up formulae. Related results on Donaldson-Thomas invariants are also discussed. Our results give positive…

Two basic theorems of the theory of flexible polyhedra were proven by completely different methods: R. Alexander used analysis, namely, the Stokes theorem, to prove that the total mean curvature remains constant during the flex, while I.Kh.…

We estabilish some connections among the Makar-Limanov invariant, the Derksen invariant, and the existence of flexible points on an affine variety.

We construct examples of embedded flexible cross-polytopes in the spheres of all dimensions. These examples are interesting from two points of view. First, in dimensions 4 and higher, they are the first examples of embedded flexible…

Polyhedra are generically rigid, but can be made to flex under certain symmetry conditions. We generalise Raoul Bricard's 1897 method for making flexible octahedra to construct an infinite family of flexible polyhedra with…

The following result is proved: Consider a 4-dimensional Kaehler manifold M with nonvanishing Bochner tensor B. Then any holomorphic transformation of M, which preserves B is a homothety.
