    A Rubik's Cube is in the superflip pattern when each corner piece is in the correct position, but each edge piece is incorrectly oriented. [9] In 1992, a solution for the superflip with 20 face turns was found by Dik T. Winter , of which the minimality was shown in 1995 by Michael Reid , providing a new lower bound for the diameter of the cube ...

    The 2×2×2 (Pocket/Mini Cube), the standard 3×3×3 cube, the 4×4×4 (Rubik's Revenge/Master Cube), and the 5×5×5 (Professor's Cube) are the most well known, as they are all available under the official Rubik's brand. The WCA sanctions speedsolving competitions for cube orders up to 7×7×7.

    A scrambled Rubik's Cube. An algorithm to determine the minimum number of moves to solve Rubik's Cube was published in 1997 by Richard Korf. [10] While it had been known since 1995 that 20 was a lower bound on the number of moves for the solution in the worst case, Tom Rokicki proved in 2010 that no configuration requires more than 20 moves.

    The Rubik's Cube is constructed by labeling each of the 48 non-center facets with the integers 1 to 48. Each configuration of the cube can be represented as a permutation of the labels 1 to 48, depending on the position of each facet. Using this representation, the solved cube is the identity permutation which leaves the cube unchanged, while ...

    In October 1979, he self-published his Notes on the "Magic Cube". [16] The booklet contained his mathematical analysis of Rubik's Cube, allowing a solution to be constructed using basic group theory. [17] In August 1980 he published an expanded 5th edition of the book retitled as Notes on Rubik's "Magic Cube". [16]
