[edit] Citration for assertion in House of Stairs

Hello,


I was wondering if you could add a citation to the assertion that House of Stairs represents a klein bottle projected in higher dimensions. That sort of statement needs authoritative support. Thank you for any help you can contribute. Argyrios 20:33, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

If you look at the House of Stairs, you can see that it has an inner symmetry represented by a composition of a translation down and a reflection. This is the same symmetry of the Klein Bottle. The difference is that the House of Stairs is a 3D surface, while the Klein Bottle is 2D. Albmont 00:34, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
