Smoothing of singular intersections of ellipsoids: pyramitoid

Abstract

The goal of this work is to continue the study the smoothings of 3-dimensional manifolds with singularities obtained as small covers of non simple right-angle Coxeter polyhedral orbifolds. They appear in the study of coaxial intersections of ellipsoids. In particular we introduce the concept of $n$-pyramitoid generalizing the $n$-pyramid.
