3D Printed Models of Wild Spheres

Year: 2022 Authors: Lucien Grillet

Core claim

3D printing can make abstract wild sphere examples from topology visually accessible and physically usable for teaching and discussion, while preserving the key nontrivial topological features of the Alexander horned sphere and Fox-Artin sphere.
