Lecture 10: Polyhedron (un)folding in general, polyhedron unfolding in particular: edge unfoldings, general unfoldings, main questions and results, curvature, source unfolding, star unfolding, ununfoldable polyhedra

Page 4: Edge unfolding convex polyhedra: history, positive and negative examples, experiments about random unfoldings of random examples tending to overlap. Special classes that can be edge unfolded: at most 6 vertices, pyramid, prism, prismoid, dome.
