The rigidity of periodic frameworks as graphs on a fixed torus
نویسنده
چکیده
We define periodic frameworks as graphs on the torus, using the language of gain graphs. We present some fundamental definitions and results about the infinitesimal rigidity of graphs on a torus of fixed size and shape, and find necessary conditions for the generic rigidity of periodic frameworks on a d-dimensional fixed torus.

The rigidity of periodic body-bar frameworks on the three-dimensional fixed torus.
We present necessary and sufficient conditions for the generic rigidity of body-bar frameworks on the three-dimensional fixed torus. These frameworks correspond to infinite periodic body-bar frame-works in with a fixed periodic lattice.
متن کاملPeriodic Rigidity on a Variable Torus Using Inductive Constructions
In this paper we prove a recursive characterisation of generic rigidity for frameworks periodic in the plane with respect to a partially variable lattice. We follow the approach of modelling periodic frameworks as frameworks on a torus and use the language of gain graphs for the finite counterpart of a periodic graph. In this setting we employ variants of the Henneberg operations used frequentl...

متن کاملPolynomials for crystal frameworks and the rigid unit mode spectrum.
To each discrete translationally periodic bar-joint framework C in Rd, we associate a matrix-valued function ΦC(Z) defined on the d-torus. The rigid unit mode (RUM) spectrum Ω(C) of C is defined in terms of the multi-phases of phase-periodic infinitesimal flexes and is shown to correspond to the singular points of the function Z → rankΦC(Z) and also to the set of wavevectors of harmonic excitat...
متن کاملThe Almost Periodic Rigidity of Crystallographic Bar-Joint Frameworks
A crystallographic bar-joint framework, C in R, is shown to be almost periodically infinitesimally rigid if and only if it is strictly periodically infinitesimally rigid and the rigid unit mode (RUM) spectrum, Ω(C), is a singleton. Moreover, the almost periodic infinitesimal flexes of C are characterised in terms of a matrix-valued function, ΦC(z), on the d-torus, T, determined by a full rank t...
