We provide a resolution of the Heesch problem for homogeneous (also known as semi-regular) tilings, and as a corollary, for tilings by convex monotiles in the hyperbolic plane. We also provide the first known example of weakly aperiodic…

The hexagon is the least-perimeter tile in the Euclidean plane. On hyperbolic surfaces, the isoperimetric problem differs for every given area. Cox conjectured that a regular $k$-gonal tile with 120-degree angles is isoperimetric for its…

A biperiodic alternating link has an alternating quotient link in the thickened torus. In this paper, we focus on semi-regular links, a class of biperiodic alternating links whose hyperbolic structure can be immediately determined from a…

An irregular vertex in a tiling by polygons is a vertex of one tile and belongs to the interior of an edge of another tile. In this paper we show that for any integer $k\geq 3$, there exists a normal tiling of the Euclidean plane by convex…

We provide a definitive classification of all finite sets of regular polygons that admit a tiling of the hyperbolic plane, thereby establishing the decidability of the Domino Problem for this class of prototiles. We show that admissibility…

The hexagon is the least-perimeter tile in the Euclidean plane for any given area. On hyperbolic surfaces, this "isoperimetric" problem differs for every given area, as solutions do not scale. Cox conjectured that a regular $k$-gonal tile…

We give a simple proof of T. Stehling's result, that in any normal tiling of the plane with convex polygons with number of sides not less than six, all tiles except the finite number are hexagons.

Tilings of a surface of negative Euler characteristic by n-gons with n\ge 7 is a finite problem. One extreme of the finite problem is single tile tilings. We develop the algorithm for finding all the single tile tilings and present the…

Tilings of the plane resemble the simplicial and other complexes from algebraic topology, but have not been studied from this perspective. We construct finite categories corresponding to polygons with labeled directed edges, and introduce…

The study of geometric group theory has suggested several theorems related to subdivision tilings that have a natural hyperbolic structure. However, few examples exist. We construct subdivision tilings for the complement of every…

Every normal periodic tiling is a strongly balanced tiling. The properties of periodic tilings by convex polygons are rearranged from the knowledge of strongly balanced tilings. From the results, we show the properties of representative…

A coloring of a planar semiregular tiling $\mathcal{T}$ is an assignment of a unique color to each tile of $\mathcal{T}$. If $G$ is the symmetry group of $\mathcal{T}$, we say that the coloring is perfect if every element of $G$ induces a…
