One of the three classes of tori illustrated above and given by the parametric equations x = (c+acosv)cosu (1) y = (c+acosv)sinu (2) z = asinv. (3) The three different ...

The superellipsoid is a generalization of the ellipsoid by allowing different exponents of the variables in the algebraic representation. It is similarly a generalization of ...

The Szilassi polyhedron is a heptahedron that is topologically equivalent to a torus and for which every pair of faces has a polygon edge in common. The Szilassi polyhedron ...

A flexagon made with square faces. Gardner (1961) shows how to construct a tri-tetraflexagon, tetra-tetraflexagon, and hexa-tetraflexagon.

A number of attractive 12-compounds of the regular tetrahedron can be constructed. The compounds illustrated above will be implemented in a future version of the Wolfram ...

The (not necessarily regular) tetrahedron of least volume circumscribed around a convex body B with volume V is not known. If B is a parallelepiped, then the smallest-volume ...

The tetrahemihexahedron is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 4 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 67 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 36 (Coxeter et al. 1954), and Har'El ...

A toric section is a curve obtained by slicing a torus (generally a horn torus) with a plane. A spiric section is a special case of a toric section in which the slicing plane ...

With n cuts of a torus of genus 1, the maximum number of pieces which can be obtained is N(n)=1/6(n^3+3n^2+8n). The first few terms are 2, 6, 13, 24, 40, 62, 91, 128, 174, ...

A truncated polyhedron is a polyhedron with truncated faces, given by the Schläfli symbol t{p; q}. The operation implemented as Truncate[polyhedron, r] in the Wolfram ...
