    Abstract

    An algorithm was presented in [BDD+ 98] for unfolding orthostacks into one piece without overlap by using arbitrary cuts along the surface. It was conjectured that orthostacks could be unfolded using cuts that lie in a plane orthogonal to a coordinate axis and containing a vertex of the orthostack. We prove the existence of a vertex-unfolding using only such cuts.
