Three students in my class, Molecular Aesthetics, constructed a bead model of Klein bottle.
My contribution to their work is to tell them that this model can be done with mathematical beading. Especially, I showed them how to systematically construct the interpenetration of a graphene surface and a carbon nanotube, which is essential part of this model. In addition to my part, the TA of this course, Hou-Xun Ho (何厚勳), who developed a systematic strategy to build smooth tori with large rotational number, plays an important role for successful construction of this model with beads.
