Im März 1926 kehrten vier junge Männer nicht mehr von ihrer Bergtour auf dem Grossen Aletschgletscher zurück. Erst 2012 fand man ihre sterblichen Überreste. Dieser Film erklärt, wie Wissenschaftler das Unglück der Bergsteiger mit Hilfe eines mathematischen Modells für Gletscherfluss rekonstruiert haben.

Analogous to Henri Poincaré’s concept of dodecahedral space the epita_dodecahedron allows to visualize the principle of the counter-movements of the opposite polyhedra E+ instead of the pentagonal spaces in his description of the homology sphere in the fifth “Complément” : Thus it clearly shows the different evolving symmetries,- crystallizing in steps of 36 degrees, just as Poincaré anticipated the shape of the universe in 1904.

Using color and movement, this video rigorously explains what a translation surface is, and the theorem about translation surfaces that I proved in my Ph. D. thesis.

This 3D print shows the Lawson surface which is the only known example of a minimal surface of genus 2, i. e., with 2 holes, in the 3-dimensional sphere.

Interactive viewer for constant mean curvature and constrained Willmore surfaces.
Circular shaped mirrors which are arranged in a grid-like manner reflect a light ray according to the reflection law of geometric optics. While random positions of the light source produce chaotic reflection patterns, it is possible to position the light source so that beautiful symmetric reflection patterns are created.
The application allows you to interactively change parameters like light source position, circle radius and rotation angle of the lattice. Through a simple menu it is possible to select and explore a wide range of symmetric reflection patterns.
