We present an interactive game which challenges a single player to match 3-dimensional polytopes to their planar nets. It is open source, and it runs in standard web browsers

A biconvex polytope is a convex polytope that is also tropically convex. It is well known that every bounded cell of a tropical linear space is a biconvex polytope, but its converse has been a conjecture. We classify biconvex polytopes, and prove the conjecture by constructing a matroid subdivision dual to a biconvex polytope. In particular, we construct matroids from bipartite graphs, and establish the relationship between bipartite graphs and faces of a biconvex polytope. We also show that there is a bijection between monomials and a maximal set of vertices of a biconvex polytope.
Results of Koebe (1936), Schramm (1992), and Springborn (2005) yield realizations of $3$-polytopes with edges tangent to the unit sphere. Here we study the algebraic degrees of such realizations. This initiates the research on constrained realization spaces of polytopes.
For $3$-dimensional convex polytopes, inscribability is a classical property that is relatively well-understood due to its relation with Delaunay subdivisions of the plane and hyperbolic geometry. In particular, inscribability can be tested in polyno mial time, and for every $f$-vector of $3$-polytopes, there exists an inscribable polytope with that $f$-vector. For higher-dimensional polytopes, much less is known. Of course, for any inscribable polytope, all of its lower-dimensional faces need to be inscribable, but this condition does not appear to be very strong. We observe non-trivial new obstructions to the inscribability of polytopes that arise when imposing that a certain inscribable face be inscribed. Using this obstruction, we show that the duals of the $4$-dimensional cyclic polytopes with at least $8$ vertices---all of whose faces are inscribable---are not inscribable. This result is optimal in the following sense: We prove that the duals of the cyclic $4$-polytopes with up to $7$ vertices are, in fact, inscribable. Moreover, we interpret this obstruction combinatorially as a forbidden subposet of the face lattice of a polytope, show that $d$-dimensional cyclic polytopes with at least $d+4$ vertices are not circumscribable, and that no dual of a neighborly $4$-polytope with $8$ vertices, that is, no polytope with $f$-vector $(20,40,28,8)$, is inscribable.
New understandings of the functioning of human brains engaged in mathematics raise interesting questions for mathematics educators. Novel lines of research are suggested by neuroscientific findings, and new light is shed on some longstanding issues in mathematics education.
