This book contains recent contributions to the fields of rigidity
and symmetry with two primary focuses: to present the
mathematically rigorous treatment of rigidity of structures and to
explore the interaction of geometry, algebra and combinatorics.
Contributions present recent trends and advances in discrete
geometry, particularly in the theory of polytopes. The rapid
development of abstract polytope theory has resulted in a rich
theory featuring an attractive interplay of methods and tools from
discrete geometry, group theory, classical geometry, hyperbolic
geometry and topology. Overall, the book shows how researchers from
diverse backgrounds explore connections among the various discrete
structures with symmetry as the unifying theme. The volume will be
a valuable source as an introduction to the ideas of both
combinatorial and geometric rigidity theory and its applications,
incorporating the surprising impact of symmetry. It will appeal to
students at both the advanced undergraduate and graduate levels, as
well as post docs, structural engineers and chemists.
