Unfolding Orthogonal Polyhedra with Quadratic Refinement: The Delta-Unfolding Algorithm
We show that every orthogonal polyhedron homeomorphic to a sphere can be unfolded without overlap while using only polynomially many (orthogonal) cuts. By contrast, the best previous such result used exponentially many cuts. More precisely, given an orthogonal polyhedron with n vertices, the algorit...
