Constant Scalar Curvature Metrics on Boundary Complexes of Cyclic Polytopes
In this paper we give examples of constant scalar curvature metrics on piecewise-flat triangulated 3-manifolds. These types of metrics are possible candidates for “best” metrics on triangulated 3-manifolds. In the pentachoron, the triangulation formed by the simplicial boundary of the 4-simplex, we find that its stucture is completely deterimed with a vertex transitive metric. Further this metr...
متن کاملThe cusped hyperbolic census is complete
From its creation in 1989 through subsequent extensions, the widely-used “SnapPea census” now aims to represent all cusped finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds that can be obtained from ≤ 8 ideal tetrahedra. Its construction, however, has relied on inexact computations and some unproven (though reasonable) assumptions, and so its completeness was never guaranteed. For the first time, we prove h...
متن کاملEulerian Geometric Discretizations of Manifolds and Dynamics
This thesis explores new methods for geometric, structure-preserving Eulerian discretizations of dynamics, including Lie advection and incompressible fluids, and the manifolds in which these dynamics occur. The result is a novel method for discrete Lie advection of differential forms, a new family of structure-preserving fluid integrators, and a new set of energies for optimizing meshes appropr...
متن کاملFat Triangulations and Differential Geometry
We study the differential geometric consequences of our previous result on the existence of fat triangulations, in conjunction with a result of Cheeger, Müller and Schrader, regarding the convergence of Lipschitz-Killing curvatures of piecewise-flat approximations of smooth Riemannian manifolds. A further application to the existence of quasiconformal mappings between manifolds, as well as an e...
متن کاملNonrealizable Minimal Vertex Triangulations of Surfaces: Showing Nonrealizability Using Oriented Matroids and Satisfiability Solvers
We show that no minimal vertex triangulation of a closed, connected, orientable 2-manifold of genus 6 admits a polyhedral embedding in R. We also provide examples of minimal vertex triangulations of closed, connected, orientable 2-manifolds of genus 5 that do not admit any polyhedral embeddings. We construct a new infinite family of non-realizable triangulations of surfaces. These results were ...
