Group Theory and the Megaminx

The Rubik’s cube is famous for its complexity, and its applications with the group theory also amaze mathematicians. Based on the Rubik’s cube, megaminx is created. Similarly, it can be applied with group theory. This work aims to define the structure of megaminx in terms of the Group Theory and deduce the full conditions for megaminx to stay in a valid configuration of it.

Abstract

The Rubik’s cube is famous for its complexity, and its applications with the group theory also amaze mathematicians. Based on the Rubik’s cube, megaminx is created. Similarly, it can be applied with group theory. This work aims to define the structure of megaminx in terms of the Group Theory and deduce the full conditions for megaminx to stay in a valid configuration of it.
