Hexagonal tiling

Hexagonal Tiling Explained!

There is more than one way to tile the plane. In this video we'll explore hexagonal tiling. Hexagonal tiling can be used to make many cool effects. Twitter: @The_ArtOfCode Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theartofcode/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheArtOfCode PayPal Donation

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

Area of an interior hexagon (visual proof) - plus a bonus area!

This is a short, animated visual proof of a relatively recent proof about the area of the certain regular hexagon inside of a regular hexagon. The inner hexagon has been created from the region obtained by connecting vertices of the outer hexagon to appropriate edge midpoints of the outer

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

Doris Schattschneider - Two Conway Geometric Gems - CoM Oct 2021

John Conway enjoyed discovering unusual properties of triangles and also enjoyed discovering properties of tilings. Two of his discoveries bear his name: The Conway Circle, and The Conway Criterion. I’ll talk about these two gems; one led to a new tiling app. Doris Schattschneider, profes

Arno Kuijlaars: Tilings of a hexagon and non-hermitian orthogonality on a contour

I will discuss polynomials $P_{N}$ of degree $N$ that satisfy non-Hermitian orthogonality conditions with respect to the weight $\frac{\left ( z+1 \right )^{N}\left ( z+a \right )^{N}}{z^{2N}}$ on a contour in the complex plane going around 0. These polynomials reduce to Jacobi polynomials

Frank Morgan - Optimal Pentagonal Tilings - CoM May 2021

In 2001 Thomas Hales proved that hexagons provide the least-perimeter way to tile the plane with unit areas. Of course, among hexagons, the regular one is best. Similarly, the best quadrilateral is square and the best triangle is equilateral. But what is the best pentagonal tile? Unfortuna

Vadim Gorin: Tilings and non-intersecting paths beyond integrable cases

Abstract: The talk is about a class of systems of 2d statistical mechanics, such as random tilings, noncolliding walks, log-gases and random matrix-type distributions. Specific members in this class are integrable, which means that available exact formulas allow delicate asymptotic analysi

WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A MATHEMATICAL TILING: introducing the basics of math tiling | Nathan D.

I go through the basics behind the question, "what is the definition of a mathematical tiling". While introducing the basics of math tiling objects, we introduce the definitions of a partition, topological disc, and a prototile. By introducing these ideas and definitions, we are able to an

James Propp - Conjectural Enumerations of Trimer Covers of Finite Subgraphs of the Triangular (...)

The work of Conway and Lagarias applying combinatorial group theory to packing problems suggests what we might mean by “domain-wall boundary conditions” for the trimer model on the infinite triangular lattice in which the permitted trimers are triangle trimers and three-in-a-line trimers.
