Icosahedral Skeletal Polyhedra Realizing Petrie Relatives of Gordan's Regular Map

Every regular map on a closed surface gives rise to generally six regular maps, its "Petrie relatives", that are obtained through iteration of the duality and Petrie operations (taking duals and Petrie-duals). It is shown that the skeletal polyhedra in Euclidean 3-space which realize a Petrie relative of the classical Gordan regular map and have full icosahedral symmetry, comprise precisely four infinite families of polyhedra, as well as four individual polyhedra.

Regular Polyhedra of Index Two, II

A polyhedron in Euclidean 3-space is called a regular polyhedron of index 2 if it is combinatorially regular and its geometric symmetry group has index 2 in its combinatorial automorphism group; thus its automorphism group is flag-transitive but its symmetry group has two flag orbits. The present paper completes the classification of finite regular polyhedra of index 2 in 3-space. In particular, this paper enumerates the regular polyhedra of index 2 with vertices on one orbit under the symmetry group. There are ten such polyhedra.

Regular Polyhedra of Index Two, I

A polyhedron in Euclidean 3-space is called a regular polyhedron of index 2 if it is combinatorially regular but "fails geometric regularity by a factor of 2"; its combinatorial automorphism group is flag-transitive but its geometric symmetry group has two flag orbits. The present paper, and its successor by the first author, describe a complete classification of regular polyhedra of index 2 in 3-space. In particular, the present paper enumerates the regular polyhedra of index 2 with vertices on two orbits under the symmetry group. The subsequent paper will enumerate the regular polyhedra of index 2 with vertices on one orbit under the symmetry group.
