My short talk on visualizing hyperbolic honeycombs at the twelfth Gathering for Gardner, based on joint work with Henry Segerman. Difficult to fit our paper contents into 10 minutes!

    Nice recording! Indeed, it's too short! I really hope you get a chance to give it the time it deserves!

    Thanks Refurio Anachro! I may have a chance to give an hour talk on this topic later this summer, but the recording will likely just be my spherical camera or GoPro in that case. The G4G conference had a crazy professional recording setup with 3 giant cameras that looked like robots from the Matrix :)

    > [maybe another talk soon]

    That would be great! I imagine they do have quite a setup, it sure looks like high gloss from afar. But I noticed some of the usual suspects responsible for math on youtube had invitations to talk in previous years. I bet it was a fun event!

    Nice to see it again, Roice! I would say no other talk provided such a tantalizing glimpse at such a large space of beautiful figures.

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
