Visualizing tilings, packings and fullerenes

By Thomas Fernique

In this talk, I will illustrate the important role of visualization—both in generating ideas and in illustrating them—in three of my research topics:

  • • Tilings, particularly tilings of the Euclidean plane obtained by digitizing planes in high-dimensional spaces (e.g., Penrose tilings).

  • • Packings, specifically disk and sphere packings that aim to maximize density.

  • • Fullerenes, in connection with the edge-unfolding conjecture and the approximation of isoperimetric quotients.
