Uniform tiling
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 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 rhombitrihexagonal
In 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 carré tronqué
In geometry, the truncated square tiling is a semiregular tiling by regular polygons of the Euclidean plane with one square and two octagons on each vertex. This is the only edge-to-edge tiling by regular convex polygons which contains an octagon. It has Schläfli symbol of t{4,4}. Conway calls it a truncated quadrille, constructed as a truncation operation applied to a square tiling (quadrille). Other names used for this pattern include Mediterranean tiling and octagonal tiling, which is often represented by smaller squares, and nonregular octagons which alternate long and short edges.
Pavage trihexagonal
Le 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 adouci
In 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.
Pavage triangulaire allongé
In geometry, the elongated triangular tiling is a semiregular tiling of the Euclidean plane. There are three triangles and two squares on each vertex. It is named as a triangular tiling elongated by rows of squares, and given Schläfli symbol {3,6}:e. Conway calls it a isosnub quadrille. There are 3 regular and 8 semiregular tilings in the plane. This tiling is similar to the snub square tiling which also has 3 triangles and two squares on a vertex, but in a different order.
Tetrakis square tiling
In geometry, the tetrakis square tiling is a tiling of the Euclidean plane. It is a square tiling with each square divided into four isosceles right triangles from the center point, forming an infinite arrangement of lines. It can also be formed by subdividing each square of a grid into two triangles by a diagonal, with the diagonals alternating in direction, or by overlaying two square grids, one rotated by 45 degrees from the other and scaled by a factor of √2.
Configuration de sommet
En 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 rhombitrihexagonal
In 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 carré adouci
In 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.
