    Conformally correct tilings

    Full text link
    We discuss the art and science of producing conformally correct euclidean and hyperbolic tilings of compact surfaces. As an example, we present a tiling of the Chmutov surface by hyperbolic (2, 4, 6) triangles.Comment: 6 pages, 7 compound figure

    Conformal variations and quantum fluctuations in discrete gravity

    Full text link
    After an overview of variational principles for discrete gravity, and on the basis of the approach to conformal transformations in a simplicial PL setting proposed by Luo and Glickenstein, we present at a heuristic level an improved scheme for addressing the gravitational (Euclidean) path integral and geometrodynamics.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figure
