    We introduce a notion we call quasi-twisting that cuts a convex polyhedron P into two halves and reglues the halves to form a different convex polyhedron. The cut is along a simple closed quasigeodesic. We initiate the study of the range of polyhedra produced by quasi-twisting P, and in particular, whether P can “quasi-twist flat,” i.e., produce a flat, doubly-covered polygon. We establish a sufficient condition and some necessary conditions, which allow us to show that of the five Platonic solids, the tetrahedron, cube, and oc- tahedron can quasi-twist flat. We conjecture that the dodecahedron and icosahedron cannot quasi-twist flat, and prove that they cannot under certain restrictions. Many open problems remain.
