An Origami Puzzle of Intersecting Cubes

Year: 2010 Authors: Zsolt Lengvarszky

Core claim

A dimpled cube origami design leads to a ring-of-cubes puzzle whose feasible geometry can be characterized by a linear system, with parity of the number of pieces determining uniqueness or multiplicity of solutions.
