Jenn3d

Jenn is a toy for playing with various quotients of Cayley graphs of finite Coxeter groups on four generators. Jenn builds the graphs using the Todd-Coxeter algorithm, embeds them into the 3-sphere, and stereographically projects them onto euclidean 3-space. (The models really live in the hypersphere so they looked curved in our flat space.) Jenn has some basic motion models governing the six degrees of freedom of rotation of the hypersphere.

Installing

Binaries are available at jenn3d.org.

To compile yourself,

  1. extract and unzip
  2. edit makefile: specify the target type
  3. make
  4. run jenn or jenn.exe

For example:

$ tar -xzf jenn.2006_07_28.tgz
$ cd jenn3d
$ vim Makefile  # uncomment your compile type
$ make
$ ./jenn

You may also need to install the Glut and (optionally) the libpng libraries. Users of Debian-based systems such as Ubuntu or Mac+Fink can get this with

$ sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev
$ sudo apt-get install libpng12-dev  # or libpng3 on for Macs

On Windows+Cygwin you will need glut32.dll.
