Spherical and planar folding tessellations by kites and equilateral triangles
نویسندگان
چکیده
We prove that there is a unique folding tessellation of the sphere and an infinite family of folding tessellations of the plane with prototiles a kite and an equilateral triangle. Each tiling of this family is obtained by successive gluing of two patterns composed of triangles and kites, respectively. The combinatorial structure and the symmetry group is achieved.

Spherical Folding Tessellations by Kites and Isosceles Triangles Ii
Abstract: The classification of the dihedral folding tessellations of the sphere and the plane whose prototiles are a kite and an equilateral triangle were obtained in a recent paper, [1]. Concerning to isosceles triangles the classification is much harder, which is not surprising since more angles are involved. In this paper we extend this classification presenting all the dihedral folding tes...
متن کاملGeometric and combinatorial structure of a class of spherical folding tesselations - II
The classification of the dihedral folding tessellations of the sphere whose prototiles are a kite and an equilateral or isosceles triangle was recently achieved. In this paper we complete the classification of spherical folding tessellations by kites and scalene triangles, where the shorter side of the kite is equal to the longest side of the triangle, initiated in [C.P. Avelino and A.F. Santo...
متن کاملUnderstanding the Eigenstructure of Various Triangles
We examine the eigenstructure of generalized isosceles triangles and explore the possibilities of analytic solutions to the general eigenvalue problem in other triangles. Starting with work based off of Brian McCartin’s paper on equilateral triangles, we first explore the existence of analytic solutions within the space of all isosceles triangles. We find that this method only leads to consiste...
متن کاملDihedral f-Tilings of the Sphere by Equilateral and Scalene Triangles - III
The study of spherical dihedral f-tilings by equilateral and isosceles triangles was introduced in [3]. Taking as prototiles equilateral and scalene triangles, we are faced with three possible ways of adjacency. In [4] and [5] two of these possibilities were studied. Here, we complete this study, describing the f-tilings related to the remaining case of adjacency, including their symmetry group...
متن کاملParallel algorithms for planar and spherical Delaunay construction with an application to centroidal Voronoi tessellations
A new algorithm, featuring overlapping domain decompositions, for the parallel construction of Delaunay and Voronoi tessellations is developed. Overlapping allows for the seamless stitching of the partial pieces of the global Delaunay tessellations constructed by individual processors. The algorithm is then modified, by the addition of stereographic projections, to handle the parallel construct...
