Abstract

Tilings of a surface of negative Euler characteristic by n-gons with n\ge 7 is a finite problem. We develop the algorithm for finding all the tilings for fixed number of tiles and present the calculation for tilings of surfaces of small genus by two tiles. We also discuss the number of distinct edge lengths in multiple tile tilings.
