The newest great discovery in tilings is already implemented in HyperRogue. So you can play infinite aperiodic Minesweeper on it, or whatever!

Here’s an interesting finding. It’s well-known that there are three pentagonal tilings which are duals of the Archimedean tilings, named Cairo, Prismatic, and Floret. Cairo and Prismatic are known to tile as a mixture. But what about all three? I can't find it in the literature.

In her talk Doris Schattschneider shared the link to the web app "[John H.] Conway's Magic Pen," which allows you to generate various tilings such as this one. She was the mathematical consultant behind it. https://t.co/yNBrgSXYWI

One of my Escher-like tilings used to illustrate a spiral principle in a joint paper headed by Peichang Ouyang, an advanced mathematician, in ‘Generation of advanced Escher-like spiral tessellations’. The paper is open access: https://t.co/ikFs0KAKIb

A glimpse of infinity.
Don't you just love nonperiodic tilings? They seem to have a mixture of order and disorder, poised at the edges of human intuition or comprehension. Source: https://t.co/LSkokHl0FI

n-armed spiral tilings of trapezoids based on regular n-gons. When n = 4 the trapezoid becomes a rectangle. Note that n = 5 is unique in allowing two distinct ways of matching adjacent scaled tiles.

Penrose tilings are examples of aperiodic tessellations – even though they only consist of a few different shapes, they never repeat themselves. https://t.co/IQKCeUTtvB

Crescents tilings work also for even numbers of edges. But for 6 a chessboard coloring ist not always possible. But with 8 it works fine.
