Polytopes

Regular complex polygon

In geometry, a regular complex polygon is a generalization of a regular polygon in real space to an analogous structure in a complex Hilbert space, where each real dimension is accompanied by an imaginary one. A regular polygon exists in 2 real dimensions, , while a complex polygon exists in two complex dimensions, , which can be given real representations in 4 dimensions, , which then must be projected down to 2 or 3 real dimensions to be visualized. A complex polygon is generalized as a complex polytope in . A complex polygon may be understood as a collection of complex points, lines, planes, and so on, where every point is the junction of multiple lines, every line of multiple planes, and so on. The regular complex polygons have been completely characterized, and can be described using a symbolic notation developed by Coxeter. (Wikipedia).

What is the difference between a regular and irregular polygon

👉 Learn about polygons and how to classify them. A polygon is a plane shape bounded by a finite chain of straight lines. A polygon can be concave or convex and it can also be regular or irregular. A concave polygon is a polygon in which at least one of its interior angles is greater than 1

What do weighing scales and algebraic number theory have in common?

How would you compare the weight of 5 objects at the same time? More precisely, how can you decide whether the objects all have equal weight or not in the most efficient way? There is a device you can build, similar to the traditional scale, that should be just the right tool... at least i

AlgTop8: Polyhedra and Euler's formula

We investigate the five Platonic solids: tetrahedron, cube, octohedron, icosahedron and dodecahedron. Euler's formula relates the number of vertices, edges and faces. We give a proof using a triangulation argument and the flow down a sphere. This is the eighth lecture in this beginner's

The weirdest fact about Polygons that I know.

I thought I knew a lot about regular polygons before I saw @BerrySmile3 twitter where he shared this wonderful fact ! I had even more fun proving it, hope you enjoy it ! Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/MetaMaths Source code for animations: https://github.com/univalency/Manim-animations

AlgTop12: Duality for polygons and the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra

We define the dual of a polygon in the plane with respect to a fixed origin and unit circle. This duality is related to the notion of the dual of a cone. Then we give a purely rational formulation of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, and a proof which keeps track of the winding numbe
