چکیده

Unit cubes, from any point of view, are among the simplest and the most important objects in n-dimensional Euclidean space. In fact, as one will see from this survey, they are not simple at all. On the one hand, the known results about them have been achieved by employing complicated machineries from Number Theory, Group Theory, Probability Theory, Matrix Theory, Hyperbolic Geometry, Combinatorics, etc.; on the other hand, the answers for many basic problems about them are still missing. In addition, the geometry of unit cubes does serve as a meeting point for several applied subjects such as Design Theory, Coding Theory, etc. The purpose of this article is to figure out what is known about the unit cubes and what do we want to know about them.

HistoPyramids in Iso-Surface Extraction

We present an implementation approach to high-speed Marching Cubes, running entirely on the Graphics Processing Unit of Shader Model 3.0 and 4.0 graphics hardware. Our approach is based on the interpretation of Marching Cubes as a stream compaction and expansion process, and is implemented using the HistoPyramid, a hierarchical data structure previously only used in GPU data compaction. We exte...

Tiling R 5 by Crosses

An n-dimensional cross comprises 2n + 1 unit cubes: the center cube and reflections in all its faces. It is well known that there is a tiling of R n by crosses for all n. AlBdaiwi and the first author proved that if 2n + 1 is not a prime then there are 2 ℵ 0 non-congruent regular (= face-to-face) tilings of R n by crosses, while there is a unique tiling of R n by crosses for n = 2, 3. They conj...
