Solid Figures Solids are 3 dimensional or 3D. Solids with flat surfaces that are polygons are called POLYHEDRONS. There are two types of Polyhedrons.
Vertex – A point at which two or more edges meet Edge – A line segment at which two faces intersect Face – A flat surface Vertices, Edges, Faces.

Part III: Polyhedra b: Unfolding Joseph O’Rourke Smith College

Outline: Edge-Unfolding Polyhedra History (Dürer) ; Open Problem; Applications Evidence For Evidence Against

Unfolding Polyhedra Cut along the surface of a polyhedron Unfold into a simple planar polygon without overlap

Edge Unfoldings Two types of unfoldings: Edge unfoldings: Cut only along edges General unfoldings: Cut through faces too

Open: Edge-Unfolding Convex Polyhedra Does every convex polyhedron have an edge-unfolding to a simple, nonoverlapping polygon? [Shephard, 1975]

Open Problem Can every simple polygon be folded (via perimeter self-gluing) to a simple, closed polyhedron? How about via perimeter-halving?

Example

Symposium on Computational Geometry Cover Image

Cut Edges form Spanning Tree Lemma: The cut edges of an edge unfolding of a convex polyhedron to a simple polygon form a spanning tree of the 1-skeleton of the polyhedron. spanning: to flatten every vertex forest: cycle would isolate a surface piece tree: connected by boundary of polygon

Open: Edge-Unfolding Convex Polyhedra (revisited) Does every convex polyhedron have an edge-unfolding to a net (a simple, nonoverlapping polygon)?

Open: Fewest Nets For a convex polyhedron of n vertices and F faces, what is the fewest number of nets (simple, nonoverlapping polygons) into which it may be cut along edges? ≤ F ≤ (2/3)F [for large F] ≤ (1/2)F [for large F] ≤ F < ½?; o(F)?
