Boy’s Surface (Bryant-Kusner Parametrization) - new version: POV-Ray 3.6.1, 6/20/06 old version: Mathematica 4.2, MathGL3d, POV-Ray 3.6.1, 5/24/05
This one-sided surface was first parametrized correctly by Bernard Morin. The animation looks like it’s turning inside-out, although technically that’s impossible because it only has one side! Robert Bryant told me that the parameters (p,q) = (0,1) give this Willmore immersion of RP2 a trilateral symmetry. The parameters (p,q) = (1,0) should give bilateral symmetry.

The Hopf map is a special transformation invented by Heinz Hopf that maps to each point on the ordinary 3D sphere from a unique circle of points on the 4D sphere |
