On the Penrose and Taylor-Socolar Hexagonal Tilings

Metric Geometry 2017-01-17 v1

Abstract

We study the intimate relationship between the Penrose and the Taylor-Socolar tilings, within both the context of double hexagon tiles and the algebraic context of hierarchical inverse sequences of triangular lattices. This unified approach produces both types of tilings together, clarifies their relationship, and offers straightforward proofs of their basic properties.
