Tilings of the sphere by congruent regular triangles and congruent rhombi

Published 2 Nov 2023 in math.CO | (2311.01183v2)

Abstract: All edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent regular triangles and congruent rhombi are classified as: (1) a $1$-parameter family of protosets each admitting a unique $(2a3,3a4)$-tiling like a triangular prism; (2) a $1$-parameter family of protosets each admitting 2 different $(8a3,6a4)$-tilings like a cuboctahedron and a triangular orthobicupola respectively; (3) a sequence of protosets each admitting a unique $(2a3,(6n-3)a4)$-tiling like a generalized anti-triangular prism for each $n\ge3$; (4) 26 sporadic protosets, among which nineteen admit a unique tiling, one admits 3 different tilings, one admits 5 different tilings, three admit 2 different tilings, two admit too many tilings to count. The moduli of parameterized tilings and all geometric data are provided.
