Uniform tilingIn 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 which can be considered uniform tilings of the sphere. Most uniform tilings can be made from a Wythoff construction starting with a symmetry group and a singular generator point inside of the fundamental domain.
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 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 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.
Configuration de sommetEn géométrie, une configuration de sommet est une notation abrégée pour représenter la figure de sommet d'un polyèdre ou d'un pavage comme la séquence de faces autour d'un sommet. Pour les polyèdres uniformes, il n'y a qu'un seul type de sommet et, par conséquent, la configuration des sommets définit entièrement le polyèdre. (Les polyèdres chiraux existent dans des paires d'images miroir avec la même configuration de sommet). Une configuration de sommet est donnée sous la forme d'une suite de nombres représentant le nombre de côtés des faces faisant le tour du sommet.
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 triangulaireIn geometry, the triangular tiling or triangular tessellation is one of the three regular tilings of the Euclidean plane, and is the only such tiling where the constituent shapes are not parallelogons. Because the internal angle of the equilateral triangle is 60 degrees, six triangles at a point occupy a full 360 degrees. The triangular tiling has Schläfli symbol of {3,6}. English mathematician John Conway called it a deltille, named from the triangular shape of the Greek letter delta (Δ).
Rhombille tilingIn geometry, the rhombille tiling, also known as tumbling blocks, reversible cubes, or the dice lattice, is a tessellation of identical 60° rhombi on the Euclidean plane. Each rhombus has two 60° and two 120° angles; rhombi with this shape are sometimes also called diamonds. Sets of three rhombi meet at their 120° angles, and sets of six rhombi meet at their 60° angles. The rhombille tiling can be seen as a subdivision of a hexagonal tiling with each hexagon divided into three rhombi meeting at the center point of the hexagon.
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 carréLe pavage carré est, en géométrie, un pavage du plan euclidien constitué de carrés. C'est l'un des trois pavages réguliers du plan euclidien, avec le pavage triangulaire et le pavage hexagonal. Le pavage carré possède un symbole de Schläfli de {4,4}, signifiant que chaque sommet est entouré par 4 carrés. Les symétries du pavage carré sont les symétries du carré, les translations, et leurs combinaisons. Elles forment un groupe de symétrie dénommé p4m. Les symétries du carré forment un sous-groupe, dénommé Groupe diédral d'ordre 8.
