We consider four points $U_1, U_2, U_3, U_4$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ satisfying $U_1U_2 = U_2U_3 = U_3U_4 = U_4U_1 = 1$, $U_1U_3 = a$ and $U_2U_4 = b$. We set $\Psi(M) = -\frac{1}{2}\Phi(M)$.
Conversely, if $a^2 + b^2 \leqslant 4$, give a family of points $U_1, U_2, U_3$ and $U_4$ satisfying the mutual distance constraints.
