Abstract:
Master of Science<br>Department of Mathematics<br>Todd Cochrane<br>Polygonal numbers are nonnegative integers constructed and represented by geometrical arrangements of equally spaced points that form regular polygons. These numbers were originally studied by Pythagoras, with their long history dating from 570 B.C, and are often referred to by the Greek mathematicians. During the ancient period, polygonal numbers were described by units which were expressed by dots or pebbles arranged to form geometrical polygons.

Abstract:
This thesis contains new results on the subject of polygonal structure reconfiguration. Specifically, the types of structures considered here are polygons, polygonal chains, triangulations, and polyhedral surfaces. A sequence of vertices (points), successively joined by straight edges, is a polygonal chain. If the sequence is cyclic, then the object is a polygon. A planar triangulation is a set of vertices with a, maximal number of non-crossing straight edges joining them. A polyhedral surface is a three-dimensional structure consisting of flat polygonal faces that are joined by common

Larger telescopes are required by astronomers to see further into the depths of our Universe, in order to understand its origins and the origins of life. A solution is to replace conventional primary mirrors in space-telescopes by membrane reflectors, that can be folded and fitted into a spacecraft before launch. Once deployed, the membrane would provide a large reflective surface necessary to obtain images of faraway celestial objects. Whilst the primary mirror of a space-telescope needs to have a very precise shape, membranes can have an uncertain shape for they are prone to wrinkling. For t

Trees are also ubiquitous which makes it even hard to model them in a realistic way, Current techniques are limited in that they model a tree either in a rule-based way or in an approximated way.

Polygonal meshes are a common way of representing 3D surface models in many different areas of computer graphics and geometry processing.

Another important property of a polygonal mesh model is that whether it is regular or not. Regular meshes have many advantages over the irregular ones in terms of memory requirements, efficient processing, rendering etc. In this thesis work, both mesh simplification and regul

Abstract:
Let P be a simple, closed polygon in the plane, all interior angles of which are rational multiples of $\pi$. We consider the possible paths of a point, rebounding in the interior of P with constant speed and elastic reflections. Such a dynamical system is known as "billiards in P". By means of a well-known construction, "billiard" trajectories in such a polygon P are identified with geodesic paths on a closed Riemann surface $X\sp{P}$, where the Riemannian metric is one of zero curvature with isolated singularities, and is given by a holomorphic one-form $\omega$ on the surface.
