This artwork by Robert Bosch draws a picture of Königsberg and its seven bridges as an Eulerian graph on the points of a grid. It's only one of many many impressive and interesting pieces of mathematical art in the Bridges 2018 gallery, http://gallery.bridgesmathart.org/exhibitions/2018-bridges-conference

    Any way to get hi-res pics of these fascinating graphics?

    Steve Wenner, for that gallery, Bridges doesn’t require very high resolution images, so I think you’d have to get in touch with the individual artists. I will say that is often easy, as many of the artists have an online presence.

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
