  2. Penrose tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose_tiling

    Penrose tilings are self-similar: they may be converted to equivalent Penrose tilings with different sizes of tiles, using processes called inflation and deflation. The pattern represented by every finite patch of tiles in a Penrose tiling occurs infinitely many times throughout the tiling.

    Tilings MLD from the tilings by P1 and P3, Robinson triangles, and "Starfish, ivy leaf, hex". Penrose P3 tiles: 2: E 2: 1978 [9] [10] Tilings MLD from the tilings by P1 and P2, Robinson triangles, and "Starfish, ivy leaf, hex". Binary tiles: 2: E 2: 1988 [11] [12] Although similar in shape to the P3 tiles, the tilings are not MLD from each other.

  4. Aperiodic set of prototiles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperiodic_set_of_prototiles

    All of the infinitely many tilings by the Penrose tiles are aperiodic. That is, the Penrose tiles are an aperiodic set of prototiles. A set of prototiles is aperiodic if copies of the prototiles can be assembled to create tilings, such that all possible tessellation patterns are non-periodic.

  5. Aperiodic tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperiodic_tiling

    The Penrose tilings are a well-known example of aperiodic tilings. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In March 2023, four researchers, David Smith , Joseph Samuel Myers, Craig S. Kaplan , and Chaim Goodman-Strauss , announced the proof that the tile discovered by David Smith is an aperiodic monotile , i.e., a solution to the einstein problem , a problem that seeks ...

  6. Substitution tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitution_tiling

    Some substitution tilings are periodic, defined as having translational symmetry. Every substitution tiling (up to mild conditions) can be "enforced by matching rules"—that is, there exist a set of marked tiles that can only form exactly the substitution tilings generated by the system. The tilings by these marked tiles are necessarily aperiodic.

  9. Quasicrystals and Geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasicrystals_and_Geometry

    One of the main themes of the book is to understand how the mathematical properties of aperiodic tilings such as the Penrose tiling, and in particular the existence of arbitrarily large patches of five-way rotational symmetry throughout these tilings, correspond to the properties of quasicrystals including the five-way symmetry of their Bragg ...
