Vortices in Bose-Einstein CondensatesPolyhedra are three-dimensional analogues of polygons. Thus a polyhedron is a solid figure (or the surface of such a solid figure) with a finite number of plane polygonal faces, straight edges and vertices. Commonest instances of polyhedra are the pyramids (figure 1.1 (a),(b)) and the prisms (figure 1.1(c),(d)).

However, one has an enormous number of possibilities, with varied n-gons, that have to be discarded as non-existent (see table 9.1 with row numbers four, ten, and sixteen terminating respectively at the eleventh, twenty-ninth and forty-oneth place).

Theorems of Euler and Descartes,In addition to the two theorems of the title we need two easy results in the sequel, which we shall dispose off first.

The fourteen Bodies of Archimedes,We next come to the convex semi-regular polyhedra satisfying (I.) and (IV.). Plato is said to have known one of these, the cuboctahedron. This and twelve others are usually ascribed to Archimedes, though his book on them is lost. Five of these thirteen polyhedra were rediscovered by Piero della Francesca (1416–1492).

Finiteness of the number of convex Regular Faced Polyhedra (RFP) and the remaining cases of regularIn this chapter, we consider polyhedra II satisfying the regularity condition (I.), i.e. polyhedra whose faces are regular polygons with no further restrictions imposed on II. This leads to one of the most beautiful and difficult results in this topic. Polyhedra satisfying this regularity condition (I.) are termed . and abbreviated to ..
