Scissors Congruence, the Golden Ratio and Volumes in Hyperbolic 5-Space

Abstract: By different scissors congruence techniques a number of dissection identities are presented between certain quasi-Coxeter polytopes, whose parameters are related to the golden section, and an ideal regular simplex in hyperbolic 5-space. As a consequence, several hyperbolic polyhedral 5-volumes can be computed explicitly in terms of Apéry's constant ζ(3) and the trilogarithmic value L 3 ( π 5 ).

“…One approach is based on Schläfli's formula (2.3), suitably adapted for hyperbolic five-polytopes. It allows us to express vol 5 ( 5 ) as a sum of simple integrals over dilogarithmic functions as follows (see [19] and [22,Sec. 4.2]).…”

“…The golden ratio, denoted by , is an irrational number given by = (1 + √ 5)/2 [1]. The paper by Ackermann [2] may likely be the earliest literature on the golden ratio in a mathematics journal in English in 1895, but it attracted and has attracted the interest of scientists and engineers in various fields of sciences and engineering, ranging from chemistry to computer science; see, for example, [1], Benassi [3], Putz [4], Orita et al [5], Perez [6], Hassaballah et al [7], Kellerhals [8], Henein et al [9], Hurtley [10], Coldea et al [11], Affleck [12], Jones et al [13], Kaygn et al [14], Cervantes et al [15], Chebotarev [16], Benavoli et al [17], Manikantan et al [18], Assimakis et al [19], Good [20], Davis and Jahnke [21], Totland [22], Moufarrège [23], Boeyens [24], Iñiguez et al [25], Andrews and Zhang [26], Hofri and Rosberg [27], Itai and Rosberg [28], Cassandras and Julka [29], and Tanackov et al [30], just to mention a few.…”

“…as well as the results related to its series representations, has fascinated quite a number of mathematicians since the first half of the XVII century [57,58], both for its theoretical implications and practical applications [32,67]. Indeed, everything began when in 1644 the Italian mathematician Pietro Mengoli proposed the famous Basel problem in mathematical analysis, which also has relevance to number theory.…”
