Workshop
The Mutetrahedron
E1 05 (Leibniz-Saal)
Abstract
The mutetrahedron is a triply periodic surface whose quotient by a lattice in 3-space gives a compact half-translation surface admitting many symmetries. We will give a friendly introduction to the muetrahedron and one of its friends called the mucube. We will then highlight some explicit computations focused on understanding the behavior of geodesics on the Mutetrahedron. This is based on an ongoing project with Dami Lee and Sunrose Shrestha.
