Acute triangulations of polyhedra and R^n [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
We study the problem of acute triangulations of convex polyhedra and the space R^n. Here an acute triangulation is a triangulation into simplices whose dihedral angles are acute. We prove that acute triangulations of the n-cube do not exist for n>=4. Further, we prove that acute triangulations of the space R^n do not exist for n>= 5.

Acute Triangulation of Constant Curvature Polygonal Complexes [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We prove that every 2-dimensional polygonal complex, where each polygon is given a constant curvature metric and belongs to one of finitely many isometry classes can be triangulated using only acute simplices. There is no requirement on the complex to be finite or even locally finite.
