Given a flat-foldable origami crease pattern $G=(V,E)$ (a straight-line drawing of a planar graph on a region of the plane) with a mountain-valley (MV) assignment $mu:Eto{-1,1}$ indicating which creases in $E$ bend convexly (mountain) or concavely (valley), we may emph{flip} a face $F$ of $G$ to create a new MV assignment $mu_F$ which equals $mu$ except for all creases $e$ bordering $F$, where we have $mu_F(e)=-mu(e)$. In this paper we explore the configuration space of face flips for a variety of crease patterns $G$ that are tilings of the plane, proving examples where $mu_F$ results in a MV assignment that is either never, sometimes, or always flat-foldable for various choices of $F$. We also consider the problem of finding, given two foldable MV assignments $mu_1$ and $mu_2$ of a given crease pattern $G$, a minimal sequence of face flips to turn $mu_1$ into $mu_2$. We find polynomial-time algorithms for this in the cases where $G$ is either a square grid or the Miura-ori, and show that this problem is NP-hard in the case where $G$ is the triangle lattice.
For over twenty years, the term cosmic web has guided our understanding of the large-scale arrangement of matter in the cosmos, accurately evoking the concept of a network of galaxies linked by filaments. But the physical correspondence between the c
Using a mathematical model for self-foldability of rigid origami, we determine which monohedral quadrilateral tilings of the plane are uniquely self-foldable. In particular, the Miura-ori and Chicken Wire patterns are not self-foldable under our defi
Inspired by the allure of additive fabrication, we pose the problem of origami design from a new perspective: how can we grow a folded surface in three dimensions from a seed so that it is guaranteed to be isometric to the plane? We solve this proble
Nowadays, big data of digital media (including images, videos and 3D graphical models) are frequently modeled as low-dimensional manifold meshes embedded in a high-dimensional feature space. In this paper, we summarized our recent work on geodesic ce
The cosmic web (the arrangement of matter in the universe), spiders webs, and origami tessellations are linked by their geometry (specifically, of sectional-Voronoi tessellations). This motivates origami and textile artistic representations of the co
