Let $T$ be a tile in $\mathbb{Z}^n$, meaning a finite subset of $\mathbb{Z}^n$. It may or may not tile $\mathbb{Z}^n$, in the sense of $\mathbb{Z}^n$ having a partition into copies of $T$. However, we prove that $T$ does tile $\mathbb{Z}^d$…

This article examines the tilings of a strip with equilateral triangles. The number of ways in which the lattices can be covered with a combination of tiles of the two types of triangles is related to Pell's numbers. Additionally, the…

We prove that any finite set $F\subset {\mathbb{Z}^2}$ that tiles ${\mathbb{Z}^2}$ by translations also admits a periodic tiling. As a consequence, the problem whether a given finite set $F$ tiles ${\mathbb{Z}^2}$ is decidable.

In this paper, we prove that it is undecidable whether a set of two polycubes can tile $\mathbb{Z}^3$ by translation. The proof involves a new technique that allows us to simulate two disconnected polycubes with two connected polycubes. By…

Given a tiling of a 2D grid with several types of tiles, we can count for every row and column how many tiles of each type it intersects. These numbers are called the_projections_. We are interested in the problem of reconstructing a tiling…

When $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is represented as a finite disjoint union of translated integer sublattices, the translated sublattices must possess some special properties. Such a representation is called a \emph{lattice tiling}. We develop a…

We show that every tiling of a convex set in the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ by equilateral triangles of mutually different sizes contains arbitrarily small tiles. The proof is purely elementary up to the discussion of one family of…

We study multiple tilings of 3-dimensional Euclidean space by a convex body. In a multiple tiling, a convex body $P$ is translated with a discrete multiset $\Lambda$ in such a way that each point of the space gets covered exactly $k$ times,…

It was shown by Gruslys, Leader and Tan that any finite subset of $\mathbb{Z}^n$ tiles $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for some $d$. The first non-trivial case is the punctured interval, which consists of the interval $\{-k,\ldots,k\} \subset \mathbb{Z}$…

Given a graph $G$ and collection of subgraphs $T$ (called tiles), we consider covering $G$ with copies of tiles in $T$ so that each vertex $v\in G$ is covered with a predetermined multiplicity. The multinomial tiling model is a natural…

A set is said to tile the integers if and only if the integers can be written as a disjoint union of translates of that set. We consider the problem of finding necessary and sufficient conditions for a finite set to tile the integers. For…

The periodic tiling conjecture asserts that if a region $\Sigma\subset \mathbb R^d$ tiles $\mathbb R^d$ by translations then it admits at least one fully periodic tiling. This conjecture is known to hold in $\mathbb R$, and recently it was…

This paper gives new solutions to the problem: 'Can we construct monohedral tilings of the disk such that a neighbourhood of the origin has trivial intersection with at least one tile?'

We obtain structural results on translational tilings of periodic functions in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ by finite tiles. In particular, we show that any level one tiling of a periodic set in $\mathbb{Z}^2$ must be weakly periodic (the disjoint union…

An N -tiling of triangle ABC by triangle T is a way of writing ABC as a union of N triangles congruent to T, overlapping only at their boundaries. The triangle T is the "tile". The tile may or may not be similar to ABC . We wish to…
