Abstract
In this chapter, we focus on the edge-unfolding of convex polyhedron. It is conjectured that we can always do that, however, it is not yet settled. Thus we focus on the unfolding that is realized by zipper.

Notes
- 1.
This is a common theorem that there is always a person who marks a score higher or equal to the average score. It is intuitively trivial, but very powerful theorem when we show existence.

I have asked directly to Dr. Greg Aloupis, the author of [Alo05], but his answer was “It is complicated”.
