Abstract

We present an educational web app for interactively drawing and editing 2D periodic graphs. The user defines the unit cell and the finite set of vertex and edge representatives, from which a sufficiently large fragment of the periodic graph is created for the visualization. The periodic graph can also be modified by applying several transformations, including isometries and relaxations of the unit cell. A finite representation of the infinite periodic graph can be saved in an external file as a quotient graph with Z²-marked edges. Its geometry is recorded using fractional (crystallographic) coordinates. The facial structure of non-crossing periodic graphs can be revealed by the user interactively selecting face representatives. An accompanying video demonstrates the functionality of the web application.
