Forcing nonperiodicity with a single tile
It is easy to create nonperiodic tesselations of the plane composed of one or a few types of tiles. In most cases, however, the tiles employed can also be used to create simpler, periodic patterns. It is much more difficult to find shapes, or “prototiles,” that can fill space only by making a nonperiodic structure. We say that such sets are aperiodic, or that they “force” nonperiodicity, and th...
متن کاملOne Tile to Rule Them All: Simulating Any Tile Assembly System with a Single Universal Tile
In the classical model of tile self-assembly, unit square tiles translate in the plane and attach edgewise to form large crystalline structures. This model of self-assembly has been shown to be capable of asymptotically optimal assembly of arbitrary shapes and, via information-theoretic arguments, increasingly complex shapes necessarily require increasing numbers of distinct types of tiles. We ...
متن کاملTiling the Hyperbolic Plane with a Single Pentagonal Tile
In this paper, we study the number of tilings of the hyperbolic plane that can be constructed, starting from a single pentagonal tile, the only permitted transformations on the basic tile being the replication by displacement along the lines of the pentagrid. We obtain that there is no such tiling with five colours, that there are exactly two of them with four colours and a single trivial tilin...
متن کاملSingle-Setup-Multiple-Deliveries for a Single Supplier-Single Buyer with Single Product and Backorder
This article investigates integrated production-inventory models with backorder. A single supplier and a single buyer are considered and shortage as backorder is allowed for the buyer. The proposed models determine optimal order quantity, optimal backorder quantity and optimal number of deliveries on the joint total cost for both buyer and supplier. Two cases are discussed: single-setup-singl...
متن کاملGeneralization of Single-Center Projections Using Projection Tile Screens
This work presents an image-based approach to efficiently generate multiple non-planar projections of arbitrary 3D scenes in real-time. The creation of projections such as panorama or fisheye views has a number of possible applications, e.g., in geovirtual environments and in augmented reality. Our rendering technique is based on dynamically created cube map textures in combination with shader ...
