Visualizing and Unfolding Nets of 4-Polytopes (Media Exposition)

Abstract

Over a decade ago, it was shown that every edge unfolding of the Platonic solids was without self-overlap, yielding a valid net. Recent work has extended this property to their higher-dimensional analogs: the 4-cube, 4-simplex, and 4-orthoplex. We present an interactive visualization that allows the user to unfold these polytopes by drawing on their dual 1-skeleton graph.
