Download or read book Polyhedra written by Peter R. Cromwell and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polyhedra have cropped up in many different guises throughout recorded history. In modern times, polyhedra and their symmetries have been cast in a new light by combinatorics an d group theory. This book comprehensively documents the many and varied ways that polyhedra have come to the fore throughout the development of mathematics. The author strikes a balance between covering the historical development of the theory surrounding polyhedra, and presenting a rigorous treatment of the mathematics involved. It is attractively illustrated with dozens of diagrams to illustrate ideas that might otherwise prove difficult to grasp. Historians of mathematics, as well as those more interested in the mathematics itself, will find this unique book fascinating.

Download or read book Euler's Gem written by David S. Richeson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-23 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How a simple equation reshaped mathematics Leonhard Euler’s polyhedron formula describes the structure of many objects—from soccer balls and gemstones to Buckminster Fuller’s buildings and giant all-carbon molecules. Yet Euler’s theorem is so simple it can be explained to a child. From ancient Greek geometry to today’s cutting-edge research, Euler’s Gem celebrates the discovery of Euler’s beloved polyhedron formula and its far-reaching impact on topology, the study of shapes. Using wonderful examples and numerous illustrations, David Richeson presents this mathematical idea’s many elegant and unexpected applications, such as showing why there is always some windless spot on earth, how to measure the acreage of a tree farm by counting trees, and how many crayons are needed to color any map. Filled with a who’s who of brilliant mathematicians who questioned, refined, and contributed to a remarkable theorem’s development, Euler’s Gem will fascinate every mathematics enthusiast. This paperback edition contains a new preface by the author.
Book Synopsis Origami Polyhedra for Beginners by : Miyuki Kawamura

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ingenious geometric models from Japan's leading designer of polyhedral origami! Origami Polyhedra for Beginners puts a new spin on the ancient art of paper folding, opening the door to a world filled with beautiful geometric shapes. In this book, Miyuki Kawamura, a master of polyhedral origami, shows you how to create 55 different models using squares of brightly-colored paper. Modular origami models are created using multiple sheets of paper that are folded and then locked together without the use of glue or tape. Clear step-by-step instructions for each model are provided. These amazing creations will captivate everyone who sees them! The models in this book are surprisingly easy to make, and include: Building Blocks and Tiles which can be stacked and combined Striking Pyramids, Cubes, Stars and Spheres Dramatic polyhedral "Wireframes" and "Skeletons" with open latticework Star-shaped Icosahedrons that look like they belong on a Christmas tree Playful Windmills, Water Wheels and many other Polyhedral "Kits"! The sense of accomplishment and delight you will experience from completing these models is well worth the time and effort!

Book Synopsis Polyhedra and Beyond by : Vera Viana
Download or read book Polyhedra and Beyond written by Vera Viana and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-07-09 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume collects papers based on talks given at the conference “Geometrias'19: Polyhedra and Beyond”, held in the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto between September 5-7, 2019 in Portugal. These papers explore the conference’s theme from an interdisciplinary standpoint, all the while emphasizing the relevance of polyhedral geometry in contemporary academic research and professional practice. They also investigate how this topic connects to mathematics, art, architecture, computer science, and the science of representation. Polyhedra and Beyond will help inspire scholars, researchers, professionals, and students of any of these disciplines to develop a more thorough understanding of polyhedra.

Download or read book Polyhedra written by Anthony Pugh and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polyhedra: A Visual Approach provides an introduction to polyhedra for readers who are not necessarily mathematicians. The study of polyhedra - fascinating figures constructed of interrelated shapes - is usually regarded as a branch of geometry. In fact, most books on the subject have been written for readers with a mathematical background. However, Polyhedra: A Visual Approach describes these figures in simple, visual terms. This book focuses on regular and semiregular convex polyhedra first. Then these are used as bases for the development of several families of irregular figures, including geodesic polyhedra - the domes made famous by R. Buckminster Fuller. Polyhedra: A Visual Approach will interest readers from many different backgrounds. Mathematicians and scientists may discover that a visual approach opens up new possibilities. Artists, architects, designers, and engineers should find it a valuable exercise in three dimensions that increases their abilities in manipulating space. And general readers will be drawn to the uncomplicated description of polyhedra - fascinating figures that have inspired many a brilliant thinker. -- from back cover.

Book Synopsis The Geometry of Submanifolds by : Yu. Aminov
Download or read book The Geometry of Submanifolds written by Yu. Aminov and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2001-01-11 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive presentation of the geometry of submanifolds that expands on classical results in the theory of curves and surfaces. The geometry of submanifolds starts from the idea of the extrinsic geometry of a surface, and the theory studies the position and properties of a submanifold in ambient space in both local and global aspects. Discussions include submanifolds in Euclidean states and Riemannian space, minimal submanifolds, Grassman mappings, multi-dimensional regular polyhedra, and isometric immersions of Lobachevski space into Euclidean spaces. This volume also highlights the contributions made by great geometers to the geometry of submanifolds and its areas of application.
