I spent the last two evenings making a small site to act as a portfolio of math viz projects. Let me know what you think!

roice3.org

It's easy to end up obsessing over these things. Time to pull myself away and sleep!

    You are way too clever! Most of my calculations are mental :(

    wendy krieger, maybe it is the reverse.  I'm handicapped to have to code something visual to understand it :)

    Roice produces brilliant and beautiful pictures. They are an inspiration to see.

    Looks great but why do you need more personal sites? Wouldn't it be easier to maintain just one main one, suitably organized?

    Melinda Green, for a long while, I've been bothered that all my projects land on the gravitation3d site, because gravitation3d just happened to be the first project I needed a website for.

    I'm not sure if I'll move over previous projects, but I'd like roice3.org to become that one, suitably organized site.  If I had started with a better generic site name like superliminal, I definitely wouldn't be complicating things with another domain name :)

    Your comment made me realize I need to repoint gravitation3d.com/roice to roice3.org, so thanks!  (currently it points at roice3.blogspot.com).

    I should have guessed your intention. Note that superliminal was a bad choice because it mixes Greek and Roman roots. The correct word should have been "supraliminal". People and things tend to grow into their names, so in the end it doesn't much matter.

Hyperbolic Hopf Fibrations

Hyperbolic Hopf Fibrations The Hopf Fibration of S^3 is amazing and beautiful.  Rather than describe it here, I'll point you to a lovely online reference with pictures and videos by Niles Johnson. nilesjohnson.net/hopf.html To understand it better (and fibrations in general), I recommend this talk by Niles too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXDQsmL-8Us It turns out there is an analogue of the Hopf fibration for H^3.  In fact, there is not just one "fiberwise homogenous" fibration in the hyperbolic case.  There is a 2-parameter family of them, plus one additional fibration that does not fit the family.  As with S^3, fibers in the H^3 cases are geodesics.  They are ultraparallel in fibrations from the family, and parallel in the exceptional fibration.  I found the following dissertation by Haggai Nuchi a good intro and resource to help think about all this. www.math.upenn.edu/grad/dissertations/NuchiThesis.pdf I'm posting three early pictures of H^3 fibrations below, labeled
