In [[geometry]], a '''Johnson solid''' is a strictly [[convex polyhedron]] each face of which is a [[regular polygon]]. There are ninety-two with such property. It is also known as '''Johnson–Zalgaller solid''', and was named after two mathematicians [[Norman Johnson (mathematician)|Norman Johnson]] and [[Victor Zalgaller]].


In [[geometry]], a '''Johnson solid''', sometimes also known as a '''Johnson–Zalgaller solid''', is a strictly [[convex polyhedron]] whose faces are [[regular polygon]]s. They are sometimes defined to exclude the [[uniform polyhedron]]s. There are ninety-two solids with such a property: the first solids are the [[Pyramid (geometry)|pyramid]]s, [[Cupola (geometry)|cupola]]s. and a [[Rotunda (geometry)|rotunda]]; some of the solids may be constructed by attaching with those previous solids, whereas others may not. These solids are named after mathematicians [[Norman Johnson (mathematician)|Norman Johnson]] and [[Victor Zalgaller]].

A Johnson solid is a [[Convex set|convex]] polyhedron in which the faces of each are [[regular polygon]].{{r|diudea}} Here, a polyhedron is said to be convex if the shortest path between any two of its vertices lies either within its interior or on its boundary, none of its faces are [[coplanar]] (meaning they do not share the same plane, and do not "lie flat"), and none of its edges are [[Colinearity|colinear]] (meaning they are not segments of the same line).{{r|litchenberg|by}} Although there is no restriction that any given regular polygon cannot be a face of a Johnson solid, some authors required that Johnson solids are not [[Uniform polyhedron|uniform]].

In geometry, a Johnson solid, sometimes also known as a Johnson–Zalgaller solid, is a strictly convex polyhedron whose faces are regular polygons. They are sometimes defined to exclude the uniform polyhedrons. There are ninety-two solids with such a property: the first solids are the pyramids, cupolas. and a rotunda; some of the solids may be constructed by attaching with those previous solids, whereas others may not. These solids are named after mathematicians Norman Johnson and Victor Zalgaller.

Definition and background

Among these three polyhedra, only the first, the elongated square gyrobicupola, is a Johnson solid. The second, the stella octangula, is not convex, as some of its diagonals lie outside the shape. The third presents coplanar faces.

A Johnson solid is a convex polyhedron whose faces are all regular polygons.[1] Here, a polyhedron is said to be convex if the shortest path between any two of its vertices lies either within its interior or on its boundary, none of its faces are coplanar (meaning they do not share the same plane, and do not "lie flat"), and none of its edges are colinear (meaning they are not segments of the same line).[2][3] Although there is no restriction that any given regular polygon cannot be a face of a Johnson solid, some authors required that Johnson solids are not uniform. This means that a Johnson solid is not a Platonic solid, Archimedean solid, prism, or antiprism.[4][5] A convex polyhedron in which all faces are nearly regular, but some are not precisely regular, is known as a near-miss Johnson solid.[6]

The Johnson solid, sometimes known as Johnson–Zalgaller solid, was named after two mathematicians Norman Johnson and Victor Zalgaller.[7] Johnson (1966) published a list including ninety-two Johnson solids—excluding the five Platonic solids, the thirteen Archimedean solids, the infinitely many uniform prisms, and the infinitely many uniform antiprisms—and gave them their names and numbers. He did not prove that there were only ninety-two, but he did conjecture that there were no others.[8] Zalgaller (1969) proved that Johnson's list was complete.[9]

Naming and enumeration

An example is triaugmented triangular prism. Here, it is constructed from triangular prism by joining three equilateral square pyramids onto each of its squares (tri-). The process of this construction known as "augmentation", making its first name is "triaugmented".

The naming of Johnson solids follows a flexible and precise descriptive formula that allows many solids to be named in multiple different ways without compromising the accuracy of each name as a description. Most Johnson solids can be constructed from the first few solids (pyramids, cupolae, and a rotunda), together with the Platonic and Archimedean solids, prisms, and antiprisms; the center of a particular solid's name will reflect these ingredients. From there, a series of prefixes are attached to the word to indicate additions, rotations, and transformations:[10]

  • Bi- indicates that two copies of the solid are joined base-to-base. For cupolae and rotundas, the solids can be joined so that either like faces (ortho-) or unlike faces (gyro-) meet. Using this nomenclature, a pentagonal bipyramid is a solid constructed by attaching two bases of pentagonal pyramids. Triangular orthobicupola is constructed by two triangular cupolas along their bases.
  • Elongated indicates a prism is joined to the base of the solid, or between the bases; gyroelongated indicates an antiprism. Augmented indicates another polyhedron, namely a pyramid or cupola, is joined to one or more faces of the solid in question.
  • Diminished indicates a pyramid or cupola is removed from one or more faces of the solid in question.
  • Gyrate indicates a cupola mounted on or featured in the solid in question is rotated such that different edges match up, as in the difference between ortho- and gyrobicupolae.
Examples of para- and meta- can be found in parabiaugmented hexagonal prism and metabiaugmented hexagonal prism

The last three operations—augmentation, diminution, and gyration—can be performed multiple times for certain large solids. Bi- & Tri- indicate a double and triple operation respectively. For example, a bigyrate solid has two rotated cupolae, and a tridiminished solid has three removed pyramids or cupolae. In certain large solids, a distinction is made between solids where altered faces are parallel and solids where altered faces are oblique. Para- indicates the former, that the solid in question has altered parallel faces, and meta- the latter, altered oblique faces. For example, a parabiaugmented solid has had two parallel faces augmented, and a metabigyrate solid has had two oblique faces gyrated.[10]

The last few Johnson solids have names based on certain polygon complexes from which they are assembled. These names are defined by Johnson with the following nomenclature:[10]

  • A lune is a complex of two triangles attached to opposite sides of a square.
  • Spheno- indicates a wedgelike complex formed by two adjacent lunes. Dispheno- indicates two such complexes.
  • Hebespheno- indicates a blunt complex of two lunes separated by a third lune.
  • Corona is a crownlike complex of eight triangles.
  • Megacorona is a larger crownlike complex of twelve triangles.
  • The suffix -cingulum indicates a belt of twelve triangles.

The enumeration of Johnson solids may be denoted as , where denoted the list's enumeration (an example is denoted the first Johnson solid, the equilateral square pyramid).[7] The following is the list of ninety-two Johnson solids, with the enumeration followed according to the list of Johnson (1966):

Some of the Johnson solids may be categorized as elementary polyhedra.

Properties

As the definition above, a Johnson solid is a convex polyhedron with regular polygons as their faces. However, there are several properties possessed by each of them.
