In this paper, we consider the finite tiling problem which was proved undecidable in the Euclidean plane by Jarkko Kari in 1994. Here, we prove that the same problem for the hyperbolic plane is also undecidable.

In this paper, we prove that the general tiling problem of the hyperbolic plane is undecidable by proving a slightly stronger version using only a regular polygon as the basic shape of the tiles. The problem was raised by a paper of Raphael…

The present paper is a new version of the arXiv paper revisiting the proof given in a previous paper of the author published in 2008 proving that the general tiling problem of the hyperbolic plane is undecidable by proving a slightly…

In this paper we improve the approach of a previous paper about the domino problem in the hyperbolic plane, see arXiv.cs.CG/0603093. This time, we prove that the general problem of the hyperbolic plane with \`a la Wang tiles is undecidable.

In this paper, we prove that the general problem of tiling the hyperbolic plane with \`a la Wang tiles is undecidable.

In this paper, we complete the construction of paper arXiv:cs.CG/0701096v2. Together with the proof contained in arXiv:cs.CG/0701096v2, this paper definitely proves that the general problem of tiling the hyperbolic plane with {\it \`a la}…

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 translational tiling problem, dated back to Wang's domino problem in the 1960s, is one of the most representative undecidable problems in the field of discrete geometry and combinatorics. Ollinger initiated the study of the…

Several articles deal with tilings with squares and dominoes of the well-known regular square mosaic in Euclidean plane, but not any with the hyperbolic regular square mosaics. In this article, we examine the tiling problem with colored…

Aperiodic tilings are non-periodic tilings characterized by local constraints. They play a key role in the proof of the undecidability of the domino problem (1964) and naturally model quasicrystals (discovered in 1982). A central question…

We show that the following problem is undecidable: given two polygonal prototiles, determine whether the plane can be tiled with rotated and translated copies of them. This improves a result of Demaine and Langerman [SoCG 2025], who showed…

We show that the domino problem is undecidable on orbit graphs of non-deterministic substitutions which satisfy a technical property. As an application, we prove that the domino problem is undecidable for the fundamental group of any closed…

Given a periodic placement of copies of a tromino (either L or I), we prove co-RE-completeness (and hence undecidability) of deciding whether it can be completed to a plane tiling. By contrast, the problem becomes decidable if the initial…

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…

We exhibit a weakly aperiodic tile set for Baumslag-Solitar groups, and prove that the domino problem is undecidable on these groups. A consequence of our construction is the existence of an arecursive tile set on Baumslag-Solitar groups.

We study decision problems on geometric tilings. First, we study a variant of the Domino problem where square tiles are replaced by geometric tiles of arbitrary shape. We show that this variant is undecidable regardless of the shapes,…

Translational tiling problems are among the most fundamental and representative undecidable problems in all fields of mathematics. Greenfeld and Tao obtained two remarkable results on the undecidability of translational tiling in recent…

We extend the classical Domino problem to any tiling of rhombus-shaped tiles. For any subshift X of edge-to-edge rhombus tilings, such as the Penrose subshift, we prove that the associated X-Domino problem is $\Pi^0_1$ -hard and therefore…

Recently, Greenfeld and Tao disprove the conjecture that translational tilings of a single tile can always be periodic [Ann. Math. 200(2024), 301-363]. In another paper [to appear in J. Eur. Math. Soc.], they also show that if the dimension…

One of the most fundamental problems in tiling theory is the domino problem: given a set of tiles and tiling rules, decide if there exists a way to tile the plane using copies of tiles and following their rules. The problem is known to be…
