1. Stellations program

The main purpose of the applet is to create a computer program for finding the stellations of polyhedra. As an example, uses the applet 5. Three-parameter model transformations of the Dodecahedron faces. The input data is a matrix of vertex numbers for all faces: m4-quadrilaterals, m6-hexagons, and m10-decagons. You need to find all the n-polygons of the polyhedron that are parallel to the corresponding faces of n-polygons. For each quadrilateral face, there are -15, -11 for the hexagon face, and -7 different flat polygons for the decagon face. Intersection of all polygons with the same ordinal define their star-shaped structure. For example, the k4 -slider sorts star-shaped structures "generated" by a quadrilateral face. For different parameters t and q, by choosing different combinations of sliders (k4,k6, k10), you can get different structures. In the applet, I selected 92 cases, among which there are many known structures. To calculate a another structure, click the delete "del S" matrices button in the section "delete matrix s n:i=1..20", specify the types: n-gons={3,5,...} of faces in the list, and then for the corresponding faces matrices: m3, m5,... you can calculate the stellation matrices.
