Ununfoldable Polyhedra with Convex Faces
Unfolding a convex polyhedron into a simple planar polygon is a well-studied problem. In this paper, we study the limits of unfoldability by studying nonconvex polyhedra with the ...

On the infinitesimal rigidity of weakly convex polyhedra
The main motivation here is a question: whether any polyhedron which can be subdivided into convex pieces without adding a vertex, and which has the same vertices as a convex poly...

Unfolding Restricted Convex Caps
This paper details an algorithm for unfolding a class of convex polyhedra, where each polyhedron in the class consists of a convex cap over a rectangular base, with several restri...

Convex Polyhedra Realizing Given Face Areas
Given n ≥ 4 positive real numbers, we prove in this note that they are the face areas of a convex polyhedron if and only if the largest number is not more than the sum of the ot...

Determining Directional Contact Range of Two Convex Polyhedra
The directional contact range of two convex polyhedra is the range of positions that one of the polyhedron may locate along a given straight line so that the two polyhedra are in c...
