We prove that any polyhedron of genus zero or genus one built out of rectangular faces must be an orthogonal polyhedron, but that there are nonorthogonal polyhedra of genus seven all of whose faces are rectangles. This leads to a resolution…
The aim of this paper is two-fold. First, the study of $C_{12}$-structure (called by us corner structure) is extended to the general case without any condition, unlike our previous papers (see, \cite{BB, BG2, BG, BBB}). Second, starting…
We define a simple orthogonal polyhedron to be a three-dimensional polyhedron with the topology of a sphere in which three mutually-perpendicular edges meet at each vertex. By analogy to Steinitz's theorem characterizing the graphs of…
A brick is a 3-connected graph such that the graph obtained from it by deleting any two distinct vertices has a perfect matching. A brick is minimal if for every edge e the deletion of e results in a graph that is not a brick. We prove a…
It is unknown whether every polycube (polyhedron constructed by gluing cubes face-to-face) has an edge unfolding, that is, cuts along edges of the cubes that unfolds the polycube to a single nonoverlapping polygon in the plane. Here we…
We show that every orthogonal polyhedron of genus at most 2 can be unfolded without overlap while using only a linear number of orthogonal cuts (parallel to the polyhedron edges). This is the first result on unfolding general orthogonal…
The associahedron is a polytope whose graph is the graph of flips on triangulations of a convex polygon. Pseudotriangulations and multitriangulations generalize triangulations in two different ways, which have been unified by Pilaud and…
This paper presents an additional class of regular polyhedra--envelope polyhedra--made of regular polygons, where the arrangement of polygons (creating a single surface) around each vertex is identical; but dihedral angles between faces…
A brick is a $3$-connected graph such that the graph obtained from it by deleting any two distinct vertices has a perfect matching. A brick $G$ is near-bipartite if it has a pair of edges $\alpha$ and $\beta$ such that $G-\{\alpha,\beta\}$…
A $3$-connected graph $G$ is a brick if, for any two vertices $u$ and $v$, the graph $G-\{u,v\}$ has a perfect matching. Deleting an edge $e$ from a brick $G$ results in a graph with zero, one or two vertices of degree two. The…
In this paper, we investigate a question of Breuillard and Reid concerning which genera can be obtained by closed congruence surfaces. Specifically, we study a smaller set of objects, namely the closed congruence surfaces which can be…
An unfolding of a polyhedron is produced by cutting the surface and flattening to a single, connected, planar piece without overlap (except possibly at boundary points). It is a long unsolved problem to determine whether every polyhedron…
We adapt Seifert's algorithm for classical knots and links to the setting of tri-plane diagrams for bridge trisected surfaces in the 4-sphere. Our approach allows for the construction of a Seifert solid that is described by a Heegaard…
A $P$-polynomial corner, for $P \in \mathbb{Z}[z]$ a polynomial, is a triple of points $(x,y),\; (x+P(z),y),\; (x,y+P(z))$ for $x,y,z \in \mathbb{Z}$. In the case where $P$ has an integer root of multiplicity $1$, we show that if $A…
We give coordinate-minimal geometric realizations in general position for 17 of the 20 vertex-minimal triangulations of the orientable surface of genus 3 in the 5x5x5-cube.
A three-dimensional convex body is said to have Rupert's property if its copy can be passed through a straight hole inside that body. In this work we construct a polyhedron which is provably not Rupert, thus we disprove a conjecture from…
In this paper, we present two related results on curves of genus 3. The first gives a bijection between the classes of the following objects: * Smooth non-hyperelliptic curves C of genus 3, with a choice of an element a in Jac(C)[2]-{0},…
A {\em brick} is a non-bipartite matching covered graph without non-trivial tight cuts. Bricks are building blocks of matching covered graphs. We say that an edge $e$ in a brick $G$ is {\em $b$-invariant} if $G-e$ is matching covered and a…
The prism over a graph $G$ is the Cartesian product of $G$ with the complete graph on two vertices. A graph $G$ is prism-hamiltonian if the prism over $G$ is hamiltonian. We prove that every polyhedral graph (i.e. 3-connected planar graph)…
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…
