Nonconvex polyhedra

Jessen's icosahedron

Jessen's icosahedron, sometimes called Jessen's orthogonal icosahedron, is a non-convex polyhedron with the same numbers of vertices, edges, and faces as the regular icosahedron. It is named for Bรธrge Jessen, who studied it in 1967. In 1971, a family of nonconvex polyhedra including this shape was independently discovered and studied by Adrien Douady under the name six-beaked shaddock; later authors have applied variants of this name more specifically to Jessen's icosahedron. The faces of Jessen's icosahedron meet only in right angles, even though it has no orientation where they are all parallel to the coordinate planes. It is a "shaky polyhedron", meaning that (like a flexible polyhedron) it is not infinitesimally rigid. Outlining the edges of this polyhedron with struts and cables produces a widely-used tensegrity structure, also called the six-bar tensegrity, tensegrity icosahedron, or expanded octahedron. (Wikipedia).

Group theory 27: The icosahedral group

This lecture is part of an online math course on group theory. The lecture is about a few examples of groups, in particular the icosahedral group. In it we see that the icosahedral group is the only simple group of order 60, and show that all larger alternating groups are simple.

Math Mornings at Yale: Asher Auel - Wallpaper, Platonic Solids, and Symmetry

The Platonic solids-the tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron-are some of the most beautiful and symmetric geometrical objects in 3-dimensional space. Their mysteries started to be unraveled by the ancient Greeks and still fascinate us today. In 1872, the German geom
