Topological Crystallography
With a View Towards Discrete Geometric Analysis
Language: English
Release Date: December 23, 2012
Geometry in ancient Greece is said to have originated in the curiosity of mathematicians about the shapes of crystals, with that curiosity culminating in the classification of regular convex polyhedra addressed in the final volume of Euclid’s Elements. Since then, geometry has taken its own path...
