The ideal neoplatonic conjecture
The ideal neoplatonic conjecture
A 6-net is a simplicial triangulation of the -sphere with maximum degree at most . A net is prime if every -cycle bounds a face. An ideal neoplatonic is an equilateral ideal hyperbolic polyhedron whose ideal triangular faces meet midpoint-to-midpoint, where the midpoint of an infinite edge is the foot of the perpendicular dropped from the opposite vertex. For a -net , write for its ideal realization.
Ideal neoplatonic conjecture. Every -net has a realization , unique up to isometry, as an ideal neoplatonic.
The conjecture proposes existence and uniqueness for all -nets. The source proves a convex ideal neoplatonic realization, unique up to isometry, for every prime -net with at most vertices, but does not establish the general assertion.
