Symmetry, topology and the maximum number of mutually pairwise-touching infinite cylinders: configuration classification

We provide a complete classification of possible configurations of mutually pairwise-touching infinite cylinders in Euclidian three-dimensional space. It turns out that there is a maximum number of such cylinders possible in three dimensions independently of the shape of the cylinder cross-sections....
