Uniform tilings in hyperbolic planeIn hyperbolic geometry, a uniform hyperbolic tiling (or regular, quasiregular or semiregular hyperbolic tiling) is an edge-to-edge filling of the hyperbolic plane which has regular polygons as faces and is vertex-transitive (transitive on its vertices, isogonal, i.e. there is an isometry mapping any vertex onto any other). It follows that all vertices are congruent, and the tiling has a high degree of rotational and translational symmetry.
Pavage hexagonal tronquéIn geometry, the truncated hexagonal tiling is a semiregular tiling of the Euclidean plane. There are 2 dodecagons (12-sides) and one triangle on each vertex. As the name implies this tiling is constructed by a truncation operation applies to a hexagonal tiling, leaving dodecagons in place of the original hexagons, and new triangles at the original vertex locations. It is given an extended Schläfli symbol of t{6,3}. Conway calls it a truncated hextille, constructed as a truncation operation applied to a hexagonal tiling (hextille).
Pavage grand rhombitrihexagonalIn geometry, the truncated trihexagonal tiling is one of eight semiregular tilings of the Euclidean plane. There are one square, one hexagon, and one dodecagon on each vertex. It has Schläfli symbol of tr{3,6}. There is only one uniform coloring of a truncated trihexagonal tiling, with faces colored by polygon sides. A 2-uniform coloring has two colors of hexagons. 3-uniform colorings can have 3 colors of dodecagons or 3 colors of squares.
Pavage petit rhombitrihexagonalIn geometry, the rhombitrihexagonal tiling is a semiregular tiling of the Euclidean plane. There are one triangle, two squares, and one hexagon on each vertex. It has Schläfli symbol of rr{3,6}. John Conway calls it a rhombihexadeltille. It can be considered a cantellated by Norman Johnson's terminology or an expanded hexagonal tiling by Alicia Boole Stott's operational language. There are three regular and eight semiregular tilings in the plane. There is only one uniform coloring in a rhombitrihexagonal tiling.
Pavage trihexagonalLe pavage trihexagonal est, en géométrie, un pavage semi-régulier du plan euclidien, constitué de triangles équilatéraux et d'hexagones. Au Japon, ce pavage est utilisé en vannerie sous le nom de Kagomé. En physique, ce pavage est appelé réseau de Kagomé d'après le terme japonais. On l'observe dans la structure cristalline de certains matériaux, notamment l'herbertsmithite. Il est très étudié en magnétisme car sa frustration géométrique génère des phases magnétiques exotiques, comme le liquide de spin. Tri
Pavage carré adouciIn geometry, the snub square tiling is a semiregular tiling of the Euclidean plane. There are three triangles and two squares on each vertex. Its Schläfli symbol is s{4,4}. Conway calls it a snub quadrille, constructed by a snub operation applied to a square tiling (quadrille). There are 3 regular and 8 semiregular tilings in the plane. There are two distinct uniform colorings of a snub square tiling. (Naming the colors by indices around a vertex (3.3.4.3.4): 11212, 11213.
List of Euclidean uniform tilingsThis table shows the 11 convex uniform tilings (regular and semiregular) of the Euclidean plane, and their dual tilings. There are three regular and eight semiregular tilings in the plane. The semiregular tilings form new tilings from their duals, each made from one type of irregular face. John Conway called these uniform duals Catalan tilings, in parallel to the Catalan solid polyhedra. Uniform tilings are listed by their vertex configuration, the sequence of faces that exist on each vertex. For example 4.
Symbole de WythoffEn géométrie, un symbole de Wythoff est une notation courte, créée par le mathématicien Willem Abraham Wythoff, pour nommer les polyèdres réguliers et semi-réguliers utilisant une construction kaléidoscopique, en les représentant comme des pavages sur la surface d'une sphère, sur un plan euclidien ou un plan hyperbolique. Le symbole de Wythoff donne 3 nombres p,q,r et une barre verticale positionnelle (|) qui sépare les nombres avant et après elle. Chaque nombre représente l'ordre des miroirs à un sommet du triangle fondamental.
OmnitruncationIn geometry, an omnitruncation of a convex polytope is a simple polytope of the same dimension, having a vertex for each flag of the original polytope and a facet for each face of any dimension of the original polytope. Omnitruncation is the dual operation to barycentric subdivision. Because the barycentric subdivision of any polytope can be realized as another polytope, the same is true for the omnitruncation of any polytope.
Pavage hexagonal adouciIn geometry, the snub hexagonal tiling (or snub trihexagonal tiling) is a semiregular tiling of the Euclidean plane. There are four triangles and one hexagon on each vertex. It has Schläfli symbol sr{3,6}. The snub tetrahexagonal tiling is a related hyperbolic tiling with Schläfli symbol sr{4,6}. Conway calls it a snub hextille, constructed as a snub operation applied to a hexagonal tiling (hextille). There are three regular and eight semiregular tilings in the plane. This is the only one which does not have a reflection as a symmetry.
