چکیده

We solve a problem of R. Nandakumar by proving that there is no tiling of the plane with pairwise noncongruent triangles of equal area and equal perimeter. We also show that no convex polygon with more than three sides can be tiled with finitely many triangles such that no pair of them share a full side.

Tilings of the plane with unit area triangles of bounded diameter

There exist tilings of the plane with pairwise noncongruent triangles of equal area and bounded perimeter. Analogously, there exist tilings with triangles of equal perimeter, the areas of which are bounded from below by a positive constant. This solves a problem of Nandakumar.

Spherical F-Tilings by Triangles and r-Sided Regular Polygons, r >= 5

The study of dihedral f-tilings of the sphere S2 by spherical triangles and equiangular spherical quadrangles (which includes the case of 4-sided regular polygons) was presented in [3]. Also, in [6], the study of dihedral f-tilings of S2 whose prototiles are an equilateral triangle (a 3-sided regular polygon) and an isosceles triangle was described (we believe that the analysis considering scal...

Dihedral 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...

Dihedral f-tilings of the sphere by rhombi and triangles

An isometric folding is a non-expansive locally isometry that sends piecewise geodesic segments into piecewise geodesic segments of the same length. An isometric folding is a continuous map that need not to be differentiable. The points where it is not differentiable are called singular points. The foundations of isometric foldings of Riemannian manifolds are introduced by Robertson (1977). For...

Dihedral F-Tilings of the Sphere by Equilateral and Scalene Triangles - II

The study of dihedral f-tilings of the Euclidean sphere S2 by triangles and rsided regular polygons was initiated in 2004 where the case r = 4 was considered [5]. In a subsequent paper [1], the study of all spherical f-tilings by triangles and r-sided regular polygons, for any r ≥ 5, was described. Later on, in [3], the classification of all f-tilings of S2 whose prototiles are an equilateral t...
