<p><strong>Overview:</strong></p>
<p>This page is not about a LAMMPS input script command, but about
manifolds, which are generalized surfaces, as defined and used by the
MANIFOLD package, to track particle motion on the manifolds. See
the src/MANIFOLD/README file for more details about the package
and its commands.</p>
<p>Below is a list of currently supported manifolds by the MANIFOLD
package, their parameters and a short description of them. The
parameters listed here are in the same order as they should be passed
to the relevant fixes.</p>
