Heptagonal tiling

In geometry, a heptagonal tiling is a regular tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It is represented by Schläfli symbol of {7,3}, having three regular heptagons around each vertex. (Wikipedia).

Yoshiyuki Kotani -Tiling of 123456-edged Hexagon - G4G13 Apr 2018

The theme is the tiling of flat plane by the hexagon which has the edges of 1,2,3,4,5,6 length, and that of other polygons of different edges. It is a very tough problem to make a tiling by a different edged polygon. Polygon tiling of plane often needs edges of the same lengths. It is well

Introduction to Tiling Theory

In this mini-lecture, we explore tilings found in everyday life and give the mathematical definition of a tiling. In particular, we think about: (i) traditional Islamic tilings; (ii) floor, wallpaper, pavement, and architectural tilings; (iii) the three regular tilings using either equilat

How Many Faces, Edges And Vertices Does A Hexagonal Prism Have?

How Many Faces, Edges And Vertices Does A Hexagonal Prism Have? Here we’ll look at how to work out the faces, edges and vertices of a hexagonal prism. We’ll start by counting the faces, these are the flat surfaces that make the shape. A hexagonal prism has 8 faces altogether - 2 hexagon

Chaos Game in a Hexagon

In this video, we explore the differences between starting with a random dot in a regular hexagon and iterating the procedure of choosing a hexagon vertex at random and moving either half the distance from the current dot to the chosen vertex OR two thirds the distance from the current dot

A lighthouse beam in a mirrored heptagon

For December 7, here is another animation that was wished by a viewer. A slowly rotating beam of light starts from the center of a regular heptagon, and is reflected on its walls. The color of the beam changes and its luminosity decreases after each reflection. In total, 128 reflections ar

Domino tilings of squares | MegaFavNumbers

This video is part of the #MegaFavNumbers project. Domino tiling is a tessellation of the region in the Euclidean plane by dominos (2x1 rectangles). In this video we consider square tilings. Sequence, where each element is equal to the number of tilings of an NxN square, is growing reall
