We classify edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent almost equilateral pentagons, in which four edges have the same length. Together with our earlier classifications of edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent equilateral…

We classify the dihedral edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by regular polygons and quadrilaterals with equal opposite edges (edge configuration xyxy).

The 1-2-3 conjecture has been solved positively in 2024 for finite graphs and by extension for infinite graphs which are locally finite. The solution is non-constructive, and finding explicit solutions for large (or infinite) graphs is very…

We briefly introduce several problems: (1) a generalization of the convex fair partition conjecture, (2) on non-trivial invariants among polyhedrons that can be formed from the same set of face polygons, (3) two questions on assembling…

There is a sufficiently large $N\in h\mathbb{N}$ such that the following holds. If $G$ is a tripartite graph with $N$ vertices in each vertex class such that every vertex is adjacent to at least $2N/3+2h-1$ vertices in each of the other…

In this study, the properties of convex pentagons that can form rotationally symmetric edge-to-edge tilings are discussed. Because the rotationally symmetric tilings are formed by concave octagons that are generated by two convex pentagons…

In this paper we describe the pentagonal tiling of the plane defined in the article "A regular pentagonal tiling of the plane" by P. L. Bowers and K. Stephenson as a conformal substitution tiling and summarize many of its properties given…

This paper focuses on the undecidability of translational tiling of $n$-dimensional space $\mathbb{Z}^n$ with a set of $k$ tiles. It is known that tiling $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with translated copies with a set of $8$ tiles is undecidable.…

Aperiodic tiling is a well-know area of research. First developed by mathematicians for the mathematical challenge they represent and the beauty of their resulting patterns, they became a growing field of interest when their practical use…

In this note we prove that any monohedral tiling of the closed circular unit disc with $k \leq 3$ topological discs as tiles has a $k$-fold rotational symmetry. This result yields the first nontrivial estimate about the minimum number of…

This paper proves the following statement: {\it If a convex body can form a twofold translative tiling in $\mathbb{E}^3$, it must be a parallelohedron.} In other words, it must be a parallelotope, a hexagonal prism, a rhombic dodecahedron,…

A combinatorial tiling of the sphere is naturally given by an embedded graph. We study the case that each tile has exactly five edges, with the ultimate goal of classifying combinatorial tilings of the sphere by geometrically congruent…
