Let $R$ be a rectangular region of the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$, each of whose unit squares is labeled with a number in $\lbrace 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 \rbrace$. Say that such a labeled $R$ is *die-rolling Hamiltonian*, or simply *rollable*, if there is a Hamiltonian cycle obtained by rolling a unit die cube over its edges so that, for each square $s \in R$, the cube lands on $s$ precisely once, and when it does so, the top face of the cube matches the number in $s$. For example, the $4 \times 4$ "board" shown below is rollable. <br /> <img src="http://cs.smith.edu/~orourke/MathOverflow/DiceRolling.jpg" alt="Dice Rolling" /> <br /> > <b>Q</b>. Is it true that, if $R$ is die-rolling Hamiltonian, then the Hamiltonian cycle is unique, i.e., there are never two distinct die-rolling Hamiltonian cycles on $R$? This "unique-rollability" question arose out of a problem I posed in 2005, and was largely solved two years later, in a paper entitled, "On rolling cube puzzles" (complete citation below; the $4 \times 4$ example above is from Fig. 17 of that paper). Although the original question involved computational complexity, the possible uniqueness of Hamiltonian cycles is independent of those computational issues, so I thought it might be useful to expose it to a different community, who might bring different tools to bear. It is known to hold for $R$ with side lengths at most 8. If not every cell of $R$ is labeled, and unlabeled cells are forbidden to the die, then there are examples with more than one Hamiltonian cycle. <b>Addendum</b>. Rolling a regular tetrahedron on the equilateral triangular (hexagonal) lattice is not as interesting.
