@KuraIthys5 жыл бұрын
In 4 dimensions, isn't this essentially what a hypercube amounts to? Let's assume you 'fold' a hypercube in on itself. Now all of it's constituent 3d cubes occupy the same 3d 'space' in some sense. If you were to navigate this space by somehow passing through the walls of each cube, you'd end up in another cube, and you can keep going through the same 'wall' 4 times in row before you appear at the opposite wall of the cube you started in. However, certain sequences of such moves put you in a different set of cubes from which you cannot navigate back to the original set by going in a single direction... Actually the graph of this Hexatetraflegagon in terms of which faces you can see simultaneously has a lot in common with what you'd see if you graphed a hypercube in terms of which other cubes you can reach by passing through the walls of the cube you're currently in...
@JNCressey5 жыл бұрын
@@KuraIthys, When you fold a square, two of the edges lay on top of each-other (same 2D space), and the other two become folded in half on themselves, and a crease that looks like an edge joins the middles of the folded edges, and the final shape is a rectangle that's half the square. So my guess for folding 3D would be that a 'folded cube' would involve some (square) faces being lain into the same 3D space as each-other, and some (square) faces being folded in half on themselves (and we know what a folded square looks like), and a crease that looks like a square joins the middles of the folded faces, and the final shape is a cuboid that is half the cube. And my guess for folding 4D would be that a 'folded hyper-cube' would involve some (cube) cells being lain into the same 4D space as each-other and some (cube) cells being folded in half on themselves (and folded cubes are described in the first bit), and a crease that looks like a cube joins the middles of the folded faces, and the final shape is a hyper-cuboid that is half the hyper-cube. But that's just a guess. Is there any math that says it behaves differently? Perhaps shapes with more dimensions than 2 are just completely rigid and can't be folded? Also there's different ways to fold a square in half. The half rectangle way, the triangle way, and some random oblique angle. So maybe something that sounds completely different is equivalent.

The "center pair" has 4 neighboring pairs, two for each fold direction, but the other pairs only have 1 on each axis. In particular, to get to anything else you would have to unfold the flexagon into a flat sheet again. This is why you see him trying to fold it in certain directions before giving up on occasion: this flexagon does _not_ allow infinite folds along a single axis.

It bothers me that the hexaflexagons must be glued for assembly but the hexatetraflexagon does not. It also bothers me that the 1/2 configuration can be transformed to four other configurations, while all the others can only transform to two. The operations from 1/2 are the combinations of the choice of which face to close (hide) and whether you close it vertically or horizontally. From the other configurations you still get a choice of which face to close, but (I assume) one way of closing each face cannot be opened in a manner different than it was closed. The closed configurations represent the arcs on your chart; perhaps you could follow up with a chart identifying the arcs and showing these dead-end arcs.

All two state numbers are written in the same orientation, whereas I can see half the 2s are upside down. Presumably two of the 1s are also upside down, but it's not possible to tell. I want to know how it an fits together!

Not Matt here, but yes: the numbers 1 and 2 are all in the middle and their lines go through the middle of the diagram, whereas the numbers 3, 4, 5 and 6 are both in the middle and the corners of the paper while their lines go through the corners of the diagram.
