Abstract: (IOP)
Polytopes have proved to be interesting ideal models for the description of many disordered systems. We present here a new method for introducing disciplination lines in a polytope. These lines are members of a fibration of S3 by great circles. In the compact structure case, the disclinated polytopes are in one-to-one correspondance with triangulated polyhedra derived from the icosahedron. We also present a geometrical model of melting on S3.References(0)
