Non-periodic geodesic ball packings to infinite regular prism tilings in $\SLR$ space
Abstract
In \cite{Sz13-1} we defined and described the {\it regular infinite or bounded} -gonal prism tilings in space. We proved that there exist infinitely many regular infinite -gonal face-to-face prism tilings and infinitely many regular bounded -gonal non-face-to-face prism tilings for integer parameters , . Moreover, in \cite{MSz14} and \cite{MSzV13} we have determined the symmetry group of via its index 2 rotational subgroup, denoted by and investigated the corresponding geodesic and translation ball packings. In this paper we study the structure of the regular infinite or bounded -gonal prism tilings, prove that the side curves of their base figurs are arcs of Euclidean circles for each parameter. Moreover, we examine the non-periodic geodesic ball packings of congruent regular non-periodic prism tilings derived from the regular infinite -gonal face-to-face prism tilings in geometry. We develop a procedure to determine the densities of the above non-periodic optimal geodesic ball packings and apply this algorithm to them. We look for those parameters and above, where the packing density large enough as possible. Now, we obtain larger density for then the maximal density of the corresponding periodical geodesic ball packings under the groups . In our work we will use the projective model of introduced by E. {Moln\'ar} in \cite{M97}.
