Summary
Folding and unfolding problems have been implicit since Albrecht Dürer in the early 1500s, but have only recently been studied in the mathematical literature. Emphasising algorithmic or computational aspects, this treatment of the geometry of folding and unfolding presents over 60 unsolved 'open problems' to spur further research.
