Properties of triangulations obtained by the longest-edge bisection

Francisco Perdomo, Ángel Plaza (2014)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

The Longest-Edge (LE) bisection of a triangle is obtained by joining the midpoint of its longest edge with the opposite vertex. Here two properties of the longest-edge bisection scheme for triangles are proved. For any triangle, the number of distinct triangles (up to similarity) generated by longest-edge bisection is finite. In addition, if LE-bisection is iteratively applied to an initial triangle, then minimum angle of the resulting triangles is greater or equal than a half of the...

Andreev’s Theorem on hyperbolic polyhedra

In 1970, E.M.Andreev published a classification of all three-dimensional compact hyperbolic polyhedra (other than tetrahedra) having non-obtuse dihedral angles. Given a combinatorial description of a polyhedron,  C , Andreev’s Theorem provides five classes of linear inequalities, depending on  C , for the dihedral angles, which are necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a hyperbolic polyhedron realizing C with the assigned dihedral angles. Andreev’s Theorem also shows that...

Ideal triangulations of hyperbolic 3 -manifolds

Carlo Petronio (2000)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

Quello delle triangolazioni geodetiche ideali è un metodo molto potente per costruire strutture iperboliche complete di volume finito su 3-varietà non compatte, ma non è noto se il metodo sia applicabile in generale. È tuttavia noto che esistono triangolazioni ideali parzialmente piatte, ma l'analisi della situazione diviene più ardua sotto diversi aspetti, quando si ha a che fare con tetraedri piatti oltre che veri tetraedri. In particolare, la topologia dello spazio di identificazione...
