Euclidean tilings are usually named after Cundy & Rollett’s notation. [1] This notation represents (i) the number of vertices, (ii) the number of polygons around each vertex (arranged clockwise) and (iii) the number of sides to each of those polygons.
An example of uniform tiling in the Archeological Museum of Seville, Sevilla, Spain: rhombitrihexagonal tiling Regular tilings and their duals drawn by Max Brückner in Vielecke und Vielflache (1900) This table shows the 11 convex uniform tilings (regular and semiregular) of the Euclidean plane , and their dual tilings.
There are 4 symmetry classes of reflection on the sphere, and three in the Euclidean plane. A few of the infinitely many such patterns in the hyperbolic plane are also listed. (Increasing any of the numbers defining a hyperbolic or Euclidean tiling makes another hyperbolic tiling.) Point groups:
In geometry, a uniform tiling is a tessellation of the plane by regular polygon faces with the restriction of being vertex-transitive. Uniform tilings can exist in both the Euclidean plane and hyperbolic plane. Uniform tilings are related to the finite uniform polyhedra; these can be considered uniform tilings of the sphere.
In geometry, the square tiling, square tessellation or square grid is a regular tiling of the Euclidean plane. It has Schläfli symbol of {4,4}, meaning it has 4 squares around every vertex. Conway called it a quadrille. The internal angle of the square is 90 degrees so four squares at a point make a full 360 degrees.
The only regular Euclidean compound honeycombs are an infinite family of compounds of cubic honeycombs, all sharing vertices and faces with another cubic honeycomb. This compound can have any number of cubic honeycombs. The Coxeter notation is {4,3,4}[d{4,3,4}]{4,3,4}.
In geometry, a symmetry mutation is a mapping of fundamental domains between two symmetry groups. [1] They are compactly expressed in orbifold notation.These mutations can occur from spherical tilings to Euclidean tilings to hyperbolic tilings.
In geometry, the tetrakis square tiling is a tiling of the Euclidean plane. ... (*442 orbifold notation), that can be seen in relation to the Coxeter diagram, with ...
