Really confusing postings your guys have here of already discussed material.
The glome is the surface of the gongyl which you might call a filled glome which from its point is an empty glome.
volume without surface? Technically I see in equations such as:
x[sup]2[/sup] + y[sup]2[/sup] .... < R[sup]2[/sup]
the ball which doesn't include its surrounding sphere, the gongyl without its glome;
The glome;
x[sup]2[/sup] + y[sup]2[/sup] + z[sup]2[/sup] + w[sup]2[/sup] = R[sup]2[/sup]
for me is the surface of the gongyl:
x[sup]2[/sup] + y[sup]2[/sup] + z[sup]2[/sup] + w[sup]2[/sup] <= R[sup]2[/sup]
without its glome the shape:
x[sup]2[/sup] + y[sup]2[/sup] + z[sup]2[/sup] + w[sup]2[/sup] < R[sup]2[/sup]
ought to be called the "open gongyl", not to be confused with the "empty gongyl" which is the glome.
(without 'w' same thing for sphere versus ball, and if you also drop the 'z' in "Bionia" with repect to the circle versus the disc)
Bclaw, The Klein Bottle is the 4-dimensional analogon of the 3-dimensional Möbius Belt, it has but one surface enclosing the entire surrounding space.
