Abstract
The method of analysis of crystal space topology by means of Voronoi-D irichlet tessellation is described. The possibilities of using Voronoi -Dirichlet polyhedra in the investigation of local and global geometri cal/topological properties of the crystal lattice in structures of sim ple and complex substances are discussed. Examples of the application of the proposed method in crystal-chemical analysis are given.
