Extractions: ARPAM HOME WHO WE ARE MATHEMATICAL PARK ACTIVITIES ... CONTACT Several sculptures and designs illustrate an algorithmic technique for creating solid three-dimensional structures from an arrangement of line segments in space. Given a set of line segments, specified as a position in 3-dimensional space for each endpoint, a novel algorithm creates a volume-enclosing solid model of the segments. In this solid model, a prismatoid-like strut represents each segment. The method is very efficient with polygons and produces attractive lucid models in which the sides of the "prismatoids" are oriented in directions relevant to the structure. The algorithm is applicable to a wide range of structures to be realized by 3D printing techniques. 1. Sculpture by 3D Printing As an artist of constructive geometric sculpture, I often visualize forms and then need to develop new techniques which enable me to create them. [5-10] This paper describes a new method for creating geometric structures which correspond to a given arrangement of line segments. The procedure is an essential step in my design of several recent sculptures. Figure 1. Deep Structure, George W. Hart, 2000.

Extractions: In (The pure mathematics of points and lines and curves and surfaces) geometry polytope means, first, the generalization to any dimension of (A closed plane figure bounded by straight sides) polygon in two dimensions, and (A solid figure bounded by plane polygons or faces) polyhedron in three dimensions. Beyond that, the term is used for a variety of related mathematical concepts. This is analogous to the way the term square may be used to refer to a square-shaped region of the plane, or just to its boundary, or even to a mere list of its vertices and edges along with some information about the way they are connected.

This is the first time a model of it has ever been made so it is a part of math history. Its a cousin of the 120-cell a.k.a. the hyperdodecahedron (the 4D analogue of the dodecahedron) Its cells are: 120 rhombicosadodecahedra, 600 octahedra, and 1200 triangular prisms. An important fact about the model we made is that it is merely a projection ( a shadow) of the real cantellated 120-cell, therefore we can't see all of its cells. We only see half of them because the other half is lying right on top of the others. Each cell represents two.

Extractions: Grace Chisholm Young (18681944) This book includes essays on 43 women mathematicians, each essay consisting of a biographical sketch, a review/assessment of her work, and a bibliography which usually lists most of her mathematical works, a few works about her, and occasionally a few other references. The essays are arranged alphabetically by the women's best-known professional names. A better arrangement would have been by the periods within which the women worked; an approximation to that can be achieved by using the list in Appendix A of the included women ordered by birthdate. With its many appendices and its two good indexes, the bibliographic structure of this book is excellent. This together with its reviews of the work of many less-known women mathematicians makes it a valuable contribution to the history of mathematics.

Robert Adrain left Ireland after taking part in the rebellion of 1798 and played an important part in the development of mathematics research and education in the USA. Kathleen McNulty Mauchly Antonelli pioneered automated numerical calculation. John Stewart Bell , Bell's theorem pins down just what is peculiar about quantum mechanics. George Berkeley , an important philosopher, is perhaps best remembered for worrying what happened to a tree when no-one was there to see it. He commented on the logical foundations of Newton's calculus. Robert Boyle of Boyle's Law fame espoused the scientific method and the existence of a vacuum. George Boole began the algebra of logic called Boolean algebra, he also worked on differential equations and on probability.

Last week, a friend said something about the radio drama in her head while she was reading. My husband said, "You only get a radio drama?" and she said, "Oh, no, I get pictures, too." Now, he's said this before, but I always thought he was exaggerating, so it sort of threw me, and I said, "You really see *pictures* while you're reading?" And they both insisted that yes, they did. Rather like being the camera in a movie. I don't *get* pictures in my head when I'm reading. If I think back on a scene, I can see it play out, but it doesn't play out in my head while I'm reading it.

http://home.att.net/~Fractals_3/FotD_03-01-14.html

Extractions: Perhaps the first sign of impending boredom with fractals is the desire to add multiple layers, as if a single-layer fractal needed something to give it more interest. Then again, perhaps my devotion to single-layer fractals is an individual quirk of mine, caused perhaps by my typical male tendency to concentrate on one task at a time. After all, multiple layers works very well in the case of music, which is candy for the ears; why not in the case of fractals, which are candy for the eyes? I named today's image "Polytope Paradise" . I can give no logical reason why I chose such a name, since a polytope is a geometrical figure, existing in n-dimensional space and enclosed by a finite number of planes or hyperplanes. The strings of bubbles in today's image are enclosed by curved 2-D surfaces rather than planes, and therefore cannot truthfully be considered polytopes.

http://www.georgehart.com/hyperspace/hart-120-cell.html

Extractions: http://www.georgehart.com/ Abstract The author's experience using "3D printing" technology for producing physical models of four-dimensional objects such as the 120-cell is summarized. For background and comparison, previous mathematical models of the 120-cell are reviewed first. 1. Introduction Three-dimensional projections of four-dimensional polytopes are valuable for teaching and self-education about higher-dimensional geometry. Experience shows that physical modelsreal 3D objectsare especially useful for developing intuition and understanding about 4D polytopes. A variety of physical modeling techniques are possible, with three popular materials being paper (or cardboard), wire (or wire and string), and Zometool (a plastic construction set). This paper illustrates a new 3D-printing technique that I expect will supplant these traditional materials for a wide range of mathematical modeling applications. 3D-printing allows the creation of models that are very compact, intricate, accurate, and portable. This state-of-the-art technology involves the automated (robotic) assembly of physical models by assembling very thin cross-sections calculated from the designer's computer file describing the structure to be built. This new technology will have applications in the creation of all types of educational 3D models, e.g., polyhedra, topological or algebraic surfaces, molecular models, crystal structures, anatomical models, etc. However, this paper focuses on geometric models related to the 120-cell, and its family of truncations and expansions. This example is featured because the author considers it one of the most beautiful geometric objectsyet it is not widely enough known, in part because of the lack of models.
The Ambo-600-Cell
The mathematical structure was first discovered by alicia boole Stott, anddescribed in her 1910 paper on semiregular polytopes .
http://www.georgehart.com/zomebook/expanded-120-cell.html

Extractions: Here is a rather large 4D polytope project for brave Zomers with plenty of time and parts. Visualize the 120-cell, then just separate adjacent pairs of dodecahedra with a pentagonal prism. As three dodecahedra surround each edge of the 120-cell, the expanded 120-cell will have three pentagonal prisms surrounding a triangular prism in the corresponding places. The bases of the triangular prisms come together in groups of four, making regular tetrahedra in the places corresponding to the 120-cell's vertices. Every vertex of this expanded 120-cell is identical-the meeting place of one dodecahedron, three pentagonal prisms, three triangular prisms, and a tetrahedron. So it is a uniform polytope. There are two types of edges, those that are dodecahedron edges and those that are tetrahedron edges. Both types of prisms contain both types of edges. Every pentagon is the junction of a dodecahedron and a pentagonal prism; every square is the junction of a pentagonal prism and a triangular prism; every triangle is the junction of a triangular prism and a tetrahedron. The cells immediately surrounding each dodecahedron combine to form a rhombicosidodecahedron, so the structure can also be seen as 120 intersecting rhombicosidodecahedra. Another way to derive it is by expanding the 600-cell. The mathematical structure was first discovered by Alicia Boole Stott, and described in her 1910 paper on "semiregular polytopes". This model was constructed and photographed by Mira Bernstein and Vin de Silva with the help of a crew of eight students at Stanford. They counted that it requires 1260 balls, 960
