Alicia Boole Stott's first article, On certain series of sections of the regular four-dimensional hypersolids, published in 1900, is the basis for this month's feature column. We will focus on her analysis of one of the "hypersolids," the 120-cell, with boundary consisting of 120 dodecahedra.
Alicia Boole Stott was a British mathematician, the third daughter of George Boole and Mary Everest Boole. She is best known for coining the term "polytope" for a convex solid in four dimensions, and having an impressive grasp of four-dimensional geometry from a very early age.
1 de mai. de 2008 · In this paper we present the life and work of Alicia Boole Stott, an Irish woman who made a significant contribution to the study of four-dimensional geometry. Although she never studied mathematics, she taught herself to “see” the fourth dimension and developed a new method of visualizing four-dimensional polytopes.
