Title: Oriented and Non-oriented Cubical Surfaces in The Penteract
(Submitted on 19 Mar 2024)
Abstract: Which surfaces can be realized with two-dimensional faces of the five-dimensional cube (the penteract)? How can we visualize them? In recent work, Aveni, Govc, and Roldan, show that there exist 2690 connected closed cubical surfaces up to isomorphism in the 5-cube. They give a classification in terms of their genus $g$ for closed orientable cubical surfaces and their demigenus $k$ for a closed non-orientable cubical surface. In this paper, we explain the main idea behind the exhaustive search and we visualize the projection to $\mathbb{R}^3$ of a torus, a genus two torus, the projective plane, and the Klein bottle. We use reinforcement learning techniques to obtain configurations optimized for 3D printing.
