We classify spherical quadrilaterals up to isometry in the case when one inner angle is a multiple of pi while the other three are not. This is equivalent to classification of Heun's equations with real parameters and one apparent…

A rectangulation is a tiling of a rectangle by a finite number of rectangles. The rectangulation is called generic if no four of its rectangles share a single corner. We initiate the enumeration of generic rectangulations up to…

We study spherical quadrilaterals whose angles are odd multiples of pi/2, and the equivalent accessory parameter problem for the Heun equation. We obtain a classification of these quadrilaterals up to isometry. For given angles, there are…

The edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals of Type $a^2bc$ are classified as $3$ classes: a sequence of two-parameter families of $2$-layer earth map tilings with $2n$ $(n\ge3)$ tiles, a one-parameter family of…
