Emergent rhombus tilings from molecular interactions with M-fold rotational symmetry.
We show that model molecules with particular rotational symmetries can self-assemble into network structures equivalent to rhombus tilings. This assembly happens in an emergent way, in the sense that molecules spontaneously select irregular fourfold local coordination from a larger set of possible local binding geometries. The existence of such networks can be rationalized by simple geometrical...
متن کاملOn substitution tilings of the plane with n-fold rotational symmetry
A method is described for constructing, with computer assistance, planar substitution tilings that have n-fold rotational symmetry. This method uses as prototiles the set of rhombs with angles that are integer multiples of π/n, and includes various special cases that have already been constructed by hand for low values of n. An example constructed by this method for n = 11 is exhibited; this is...
متن کاملA Computer Search for Planar Substitution Tilings with n-Fold Rotational Symmetry
We describe a computer algorithm that searches for substitution rules on a set of triangles, the angles of which are all integer multiples of π/n. We find new substitution rules admitting 7-fold rotational symmetry at many different inflation factors.
متن کاملDistances on rhombus tilings
The rhombus tilings of a simply connected domain of the Euclidean plane are known to form a flip-connected space (a flip is the elementary operation on rhombus tilings which rotates 180◦ a hexagon made of three rhombi). Motivated by the study of a quasicrystal growth model, we are here interested in better understanding how “tight” rhombus tiling spaces are flip-connected. We introduce a lower ...
متن کاملEnumerating some symmetry classes of rhombus tilings of holey hexagons
This extended abstract presents some recent (exact and asymptotic) enumerative results concerning rhombus tilings of hexagons that have had symmetrically distributed inward pointing triangles of side length 2 removed from their interiors. These results form part of a larger article that is currently available online (arXiv:1501.05772). Résumé. Ce résumé détaillé présente quelques résultats énum...
