Ooh, that is quite a lovely object. If I understand what I am seeing, there are six triangles, three red and three blue, arranged so that each of the nine red-blue pairs shares one vertex. It has one degree of freedom, right? I'd love to see a video of it "breathing". On Mon, Sep 17, 2018 at 2:23 PM Ed Pegg Jr <ed@mathpuzzle.com> wrote:

I have them somewhere. There is a low-res image in Research Problems in Discrete Geometry by Brass Moser Pach.

For a given set of k points in the plane, some number n of the mutual distances are 1. How big can we make n for a given k? A186705 at OEIS given the answers we know, but only up to 14 vertices.
Where can I see pictures of example maximal unit distance graphs? The first "surprise" is a(9)=18; I would love to see that one. _______________________________________________ math-fun mailing list math-fun@mailman.xmission.com https://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/math-fun
