Truncated order-8 triangular tiling
In geometry, the truncated order-8 triangular tiling is a semiregular tiling of the hyperbolic plane. There are two hexagons and one octagon on each vertex. It has Schläfli symbol of t{3,8}. The dual of this tiling represents the fundamental domains of *443 symmetry. It only has one subgroup 443, replacing mirrors with gyration points. This symmetry can be doubled to 832 symmetry by adding a bisecting mirror to the fundamental domain. From a Wythoff construction there are ten hyperbolic uniform tilings that can be based from the regular octagonal tiling.
Truncated tetraoctagonal tiling
In geometry, the truncated tetraoctagonal tiling is a semiregular tiling of the hyperbolic plane. There are one square, one octagon, and one hexakaidecagon on each vertex. It has Schläfli symbol of tr{8,4}. There are 15 subgroups constructed from [8,4] by mirror removal and alternation. Mirrors can be removed if its branch orders are all even, and cuts neighboring branch orders in half. Removing two mirrors leaves a half-order gyration point where the removed mirrors met.
Uniform tilings in hyperbolic plane
In 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.
Symbole de Wythoff
En 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.
List of Euclidean uniform tilings
This 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.
