A tiling is a decomposition of a polygon into finitely many non-overlapping triangles. We prove that if a regular n-gon, $n \geq 5$, $n \neq 28$, can be tiled with similar right triangles, then one of the angles of these triangles is in…
We show it is possible to tile three-dimensional space using only tetrahedra with acute dihedral angles. We present several constructions to achieve this, including one in which all dihedral angles are less than $77.08^\circ$, and another…
In this article we prove the topological minimality of unions of several almost orthogonal planes of arbitrary dimensions. A particular case was proved in arXiv:1103.1468, where we proved the Almgren minimality (which is a weaker property…
We consider the two-dimensional random tiling model introduced by Cockayne, i.e. the ensemble of all possible coverings of the plane without gaps or overlaps with squares and various hexagons. At the appropriate relative densities the…
A 2-uniform tiling is an edge-to-edge tiling by regular polygons having $2$ distinct transitivity classes of vertices. There are 20 distinct 2-uniform tilings (these are of $14$ different types) on the plane, and since the plane is the…
Tilings are around us everywhere, and our curiosity draws us to study their properties. A tiling is a way of arranging pieces on a board, such that there is no space left uncovered, nor any space covered by more than one tile. In…
Spatially homogeneous random tessellations that are stable under iteration (nesting) in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space are considered, so-called STIT tessellations. They arise as outcome of a spatio-temporal process of subsequent cell…
We present an explicit algorithm for tessellating the algebraic surfaces (real 4-manifolds) F(n) embedded in CP3 defined by the equation z0^n + z1^n + z2^n + z3^n = 0 in the standard homogeneous coordinates [z0, z1, z2, z3], where n is any…
In this paper we investigate the problem of spontaneous supersymmetry breaking without a cosmological term in $N=3$ supergravity with matter vector multiplets, scalar fields geometry being $SU(3,m)/SU(3)\otimes SU(m)\otimes U(1)$. At first,…
In the past three decades, the study of rhombus tilings and domino tilings of various plane regions has been a thriving subfield of enumerative combinatorics. Physicists classify such work as the study of dimer covers of finite graphs. In…
The Spectre is an aperiodic monotile for the Euclidean plane that is truly chiral in the sense that it tiles the plane without any need for a reflected tile. The topological and dynamical properties of the Spectre tilings are very similar…
Superintegrable systems in two- and three-dimensional spaces of constant curvature have been extensively studied. From these, superintegrable systems in conformally flat spaces can be constructed by Staeckel transform. In this paper a…
We consider a Ziegler pair of plane arrangements, that is two plane arrangements $\mathcal{A}:f=0$ and $\mathcal{A}':f'=0$ in the projective space $\mathbb{P}^3$, such that the intersection lattices $L(\mathcal{A})$ and $L(\mathcal{A}')$…
Non-periodic tilings with Tile(1, 1) using the substitution method, as presented by Smith et al. in [2] and [3], can be converted into non-periodic tilings with three types of pentagons. When arbitrary replacements are excluded, the…
Consider the unit triangular lattice in the plane with origin $O$, drawn so that one of the sets of lattice lines is vertical. Let $l$ and $l'$ denote respectively the vertical and horizontal lines that intersect $O$. Suppose the plane…
We introduce a conjecture on homological mirror symmetry relating the symplectic topology of the complement of a smooth ample divisor in a K3 surface to algebraic geometry of type III degenerations, and prove it when the degree of the…
We introduce an algorithm that exploits a combinatorial symmetry of an arrangement in order to produce a geometric reflection between two disconnected components of its moduli space. We apply this method to disqualify three real examples…
Decorating the Spectre tile with hexagons reveals triangular hexagonal clusters whose structure we study. In the process we reprove that the Spectre tilings exist and are uniquely hierarchical. The proof is not computer-assisted.
The hexagonal tiling honeycomb is a beautiful structure in 3-dimensional hyperbolic space. It is called {6,3,3} because each hexagon has 6 edges, 3 hexagons meet at each vertex in a Euclidean plane tiled by regular hexagons, and 3 such…
Many datasets in scientific and engineering applications are comprised of objects which have specific geometric structure. A common example is data which inhabits a representation of the group SO$(3)$ of 3D rotations: scalars, vectors,…
