3 Operations on Maps A map map M is a combinatorial representation of a closed surface. 1 Several operations on a map allow its transformation into new maps (convex( polyhedra). Platonic polyhedra: Tetrahedron, Cube, Octahedron, Dodecahedron and Icosahedron 1. Pisanski, T.; Randić, M. Bridges between Geometry and Graph Theory. In: Geometry at Work, M. A. A. Notes, 2000, 53,

4 Euler Theorem on Polyhedra Any map M and its transforms by map operations will obey the Euler theorem 1 v e + f = χ = 2(1 g) χ = Euler s characteristic v = number of vertices, e = number of edges, f = number of faces, g = genus ; (g = 0 for a sphere; 1 for a torus). 1.

5 Platonic Solids Tetrahedron Cube Octahedron 5

6 Platonic Solids Dodecahedron Icosahedron Dual of a triangulation is always a cubic net. 6

7 Schlegel projection A projection of a sphere-like polyhedron on a plane is called a Schlegel diagram. In a polyhedron, the center of diagram is taken either a vertex,, the center of an edge or the center of a face 7

8 Cube and its dual, Octahedron Schlegel diagrams Cube Du Du Octahedron 8

9 Polygonal P s Capping Capping P s (s = 3, 4, 5) of a face is achieved as follows:1 Add a new vertex in the center of the face.. Put s -3 points on the boundary edges. Connect the central point with one vertex (the end points included) on each edge. The parent face is thus covered by: trigons (s = 3), tetragons (s = 4) pentagons (s = 5). The P 3 operation is also called stellation or (centered) triangulation. When all the faces of a map are thus operated, it is referred to as an omnicapping P s operation. 1. M. V. Diudea, Covering forms in nanostructures, Forma 2004 (submitted) 9

10 The resulting map shows the relations: P s (M ): Maps transformed as above form dual pairs : ; Vertex multiplication ratio by this dualization is always: Since: Polygonal P s Capping v = v + e = se 0 e ( e = se f = s 0 f ( s 3) e0 f 0 = s0 f0 + s 2) Du ( P 3 ( M )) = Le( M ) Du ( P 4 ( M )) = Me( Me( M )) Du ( P 5 ( M )) = Sn( M ) v ( Du) / v = d 0 0 v( Du) = f ( Ps ( M )) = s f = d v

11 P 3 Capping = Triangulation P 3 (Cube) P 3 (Dodecahedron) 11

15 Capra Goldberg factors m by operations on a 3-valent 3 map Operation Identity Tripling (Leapfrog ) Quadrupling (Chamfering) Septupling (Capra) Symbol I: : (1,0) Le: (1, 1) Q: (2, 0) Ca: (2, 1) m The m factor is also related to the formula giving the volume of truncated pyramid, of height h : V = mh/3 coming from the ancient Egypt. 15

16 Ca (M)) = =Tr P 5 (P 5 (M )), )), examples Square face E 2 (M) P 5 (M) Tr P5 (P 5 (M)) 16

17 Theorem on Ca (M ) The vertex multiplication ratio in Ca (M ) is 2d irrespective of the tiling type of M. Demonstration: : Observe that, for each vertex of M, 2d 0 new vertices result in Ca (M ) and the old vertex is preserved,, thus demonstrating the theorem: 1 v = 2 2d 0 v 0 + v 0 v /v 0 = (2d 0 +1)v 0 /v 0 = 2 2d M. V. Diudea, Forma,, 2004 (submitted). 17

18 Capra, continued The transformed parameters are: 1 Ca (M ): v 1 = (2 = (2d 0 +1)v 0 =v e 0 + s 0 0 f e = 7 7e 0 = 3 3e s 0 0 f f = (s 0 +1)f 0 It involves rotation by π/2s 0 of the parent faces 1. M. V. Diudea, Studia Univ. Babes-Bolyai Bolyai,, 2003, 48,

19 Capra, continued Ca n (M ); Iterative operation d 0 > 3 d 0 = 3 v n = 8 8v n -1 7v n -2 ; n 2 v n = 7 n v 0 e n = 7 n e 0 = 7 n 3v 0 /2 f n = 0 f + (7 n -1) 1) v 0 /2 19

20 Capra, continued Ca insulates any face of M by its own hexagons, which are not shared with any old face (in contrast to Le or Q ). In case of a 3-valent regular map the vertex multiplication ratio by Capra is 7. Maps of d 0 > 3 are not regular anymore. 20

21 Capra - Chiral, continued Since P 5 can be done either clockwise or counter-clockwise, clockwise, it results in an enantiomeric pair: CaS (M ) and CaR (M ), in terms of the sinister/rectus stereochemical isomers Enantiomeric pair of the Ca (C ),, in Schlegel projection 21

22 Capra, examples The sequence CaS (CaS (M )) results in a twisted transform, while CaR (CaS (M )) will straighten the structure. Ca (T ); N = 28 CaR (CaS (T )); N =

23 Capra, examples The sequence Du (Op (Ca (M ))) is just the snub Sn (M), being this transform a chiral one. Ca (C ); N = 56 CaR (CaS (C )); N =

24 Capra, examples Enantiomeric pair of a Ca (SWNT) 24

25 Capra - Open The Open operation Op n can be written as: Op n (Ω (M )) = E n Ω (M ) E n Ω is the n -homeomorphic transformation of the edges bounding the parent-like faces, namely those resulted by the Ω operation. In case Ω (M ) = Ca (M ) the resulting open map has all polygons of the same (6+n) ) size.. It is the only known operation leading to a Platonic tessellation in open/infinite objects. 25

26 Capra Open, Open, continued The transformed parameters are: 1 Op (Ca (M )): )): v Op Op = v + s 0 0 f =v e 0 e Op = 9 9e 0 f Op = f -f 0 = s 0 0 f The open (transformed) maps cannot longer be embedded in a surface of genus zero (e.g.,., in the plane or the sphere). 1. M. V. Diudea, Studia Univ. Babes-Bolyai Bolyai,, 2003, 48,

27 Capra - Open, continued Open polyhedra are embedded in surfaces of negative Euler χ values and g > 1 The genus g of an open Capra object is calculable as: χ( Op( Ca( M ))) = vop eop + f Op = v0 e0 = 2-2g g = ( 2 v 0 + e 0 ) / 2 = f 0 The spherical character of the parent polyhedron involves the Euler relation written as: v e + f = The number of parent faces,, which equals that of open faces,, is: f 0 = 2 v0 + e0 thus demonstrating the g formula,, which can be generalised for any open object. / 2 27

28 Capra - Open, continued Lattices with g > 1 will have negative and consequently negative curvature. The genus of the five Platonic solids transformed by is: 2 (Tetrahedron); 3 (Cube); 4 (Octahedron); 6 (Dodecahedron) and 10 (Icosahedron) Op( Ca( M )) χ( Op( M )) 28
