In this paper, we introduce tiled graphs as models of learning and maturing processes. We show how tiled graphs can combine graphs of learning spaces or antimatroids (partial hypercubes) and maturity models (total orders) to yield models of…

We consider the restricted subsets of $\mathbb{N}_n=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ with $q\geq1$ being the largest member of the set $\mathcal{Q}$ of disallowed differences between subset elements. We obtain new results on various classes of problem…

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 . This paper is the…

We consider a class of cut-and-project sets $\Lambda = \Lambda_F \times \zahl$ in the plane. Let $L=\Lambda+w\real$, $w\in\real^2$, be a countable union of parallel lines. Then either (1) $L$ is a discrete family of lines, (2) $L$ is a…

Deciding whether a graph can be embedded in a grid using only unit-length edges is NP-complete, even when restricted to binary trees. However, it is not difficult to devise a number of graph classes for which the problem is polynomial, even…

We consider tilings of deficient rectangles by the set $\mathcal{T}_4$ of ribbon $L$-tetrominoes. A tiling exists iff the rectangle is a square of odd side. The missing cell is on the main NW--SE diagonal, in an odd position if the square…

The number of ways to tile an $n$-board (an $n\times1$ rectangular board) with $(\frac12,\frac12;1)$-, $(\frac12,\frac12;2)$-, and $(\frac12,\frac12;3)$-combs is $T_{n+2}^2$ where $T_n$ is the $n$th tribonacci number. A…

We describe families of plane-filling curves on any edge-to-edge tiling of the plane with regular polygons and finitely many classes of edges. It is shown how to partition the minimal number of edge classes from the group G of symmetries of…

The Heesch problem 'grades' polygons that fail to tile the plane in terms of the number of layers (or corollas) of copies of it that can be formed around a central unit. We study the different topology of ' walls', which we define to be…

There are exactly eight edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent equilateral pentagons: three pentagonal subdivision tilings with 12, 24, 60 tiles; four earth map tilings with 16, 20, 24, 24 tiles; and one flip modification of the…

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…

In the computer vision and machine learning communities, as well as in many other research domains, rigorous evaluation of any new method, including classifiers, is essential. One key component of the evaluation process is the ability to…

We give a computer-based proof of the following fact: If a square is divided into seven or nine convex polygons, congruent among themselves, then the tiles are rectangles.

This paper presents an algorithm for computing the contraction of two-dimensional tensor networks on a square lattice; and we combine it with solving congruence equations to compute the exact enumeration (including weighted enumeration) of…

An integral self-affine tile is the solution of a set equation $\mathbf{A} \mathcal{T} = \bigcup_{d \in \mathcal{D}} (\mathcal{T} + d)$, where $\mathbf{A}$ is an $n \times n$ integer matrix and $\mathcal{D}$ is a finite subset of…

We relate a balancing property of letters for bi-infinite sequences to the invariance of the resulting 1-dimensional tiling dynamics under changes in the lengths of the tiles. If the language of the sequence space is finitely balanced, then…

We discuss the problem of counting certain LEGO structures, primarily those comprising parallel $w \times 1$ tiles. These can be combined, as a single LEGO structure, by interlocking the tiles. %Alternatively, if the interlocking condition…

The problem of classifying the convex pentagons that admit tilings of the plane is a long-standing unsolved problem. Previous to this article, there were 14 known distinct kinds of convex pentagons that admit tilings of the plane. Five of…

We say that a tile is $\sigma$-morphic if it tiles the plane in exactly $\aleph_0$ many noncongruent ways (up to an isometry). It is an unsolved problem of whether a $\sigma$-morphic tile exist in the plane. In this note we present a…

We propose a formalism for tilings with infinite local complexity (ILC), and especially fusion tilings with ILC. We allow an infinite variety of tile types but require that the space of possible tile types be compact. Examples include…
