In geometry, a polytile is an equilateral polygon defines with specific angles. An n-tile is a polygon defined by an edge-to-edge cycle of regular n-gons. The vertices of the n-tile are positioned at the center of the n-gons.

A polytiling is a tessellation made from one or more polytiles from the set defined by the angles of a regular n-gon.

Polytile definition edit

There is one equilateral concave pentagonal decatile, 24-242. It exists in the endo-dodecahedron

A polytile or p-tile as an equilateral polygon notated by a set of integers representing vertex angles. The p is an even whole number 4 or greater. The polytile angles representing multiples of a 360°/p degree turns. Angles are measured as turn angles, zero for straight (colinear edges), positive for counterclockwise turns, and negative for clockwise turns. For example: #Tetratiles, #Hexatiles, #Octatiles, #Decatiles, and #Dodecatiles have turn angles that are integer multiples of 90°, 60°, 45°, 36° and 30° turns respectively.

A p-tile notational is: p:a₁.a₂…a_m^n. (A square is 4:1^4 as four quarter turns, 90°.)
Each turn angle a_i' index is an integer less than p/2. (Indices ±p/2 are half turns, 180°.)
A ^n exponent repeats sequence n times. A chiral pair is mirrored as ^-n, including ^-1.
The turning number is computed by: t=n(a₁+a₂+…+a_m)/p. If |t|=1, it is a simple polytile (convex or concave), otherwise, a star polytile.
If the “p:” is not given, we assume simple (t=1), and compute p=n(a₁+a₂+…+a_m).
Turn angles a_i may be allowed outside (-p/2,p/2), but to correctly compute the turning number, they need be given within the signed range modulo p.
A p-tile can be up-scaled: p:a₁.a₂..a_m^n to kp:ka₁.ka₂..ka_m^n, for any whole number k. In reverse, any kp-tile, with all indices as multiples of k, can be down-scale to a p-tile.
A polytile expression that does not close as cycle is called a polychain.

A regular n-gon tile is represented by n 1's. The sum of these numbers equal n. For example 111111 or 1.1.1.1.1.1 or 1⁶ is a regular hexagon, with 6 60° angles. Odd-sided regular polygons can only be generated by even, 2n-tiles. For example a triangle is 222 or 2.2.2 or 2³, with 3 120° angles.

Zero indices can be given for collinear edges, and negative indices allow for concave, self-contacting and self-intersecting tiles. For example 1111 or 11² or 1⁴ is a square, while a 2:1 rectangle is 110110 or 110².

An exponent is always at the end, and applies to the full string of indices. A negative exponent can imply a reverse order for a chiral pair. For example 4321 = 1234^-1.

A regular n-gon has r2n symmetry. For example a square is r8 symmetry.

Odd (2n+1)-tiles are only a subset of 2(2n+1)-tiles and are geometrically and notionally identical. For example, a hexagon is both 1⁶ as a cycle of 6 hexagons, and 1⁶ as a cycle of 6 triangles in alternating orientations.

Geometric interpretation edit

This heptagonal decatile, -124-2223, has no symmetry, a1. It can be seen as the union of a concave pentagon and a rhombus

Polytiles have a helpful geometric interpretation where each p-tile can be described by a cyclic path of regular p-gons connected edge-to-edge. The p-tile is constructed with its vertices centered on each regular p-gon of the cycle, with equal edges defined between adjacent p-gons.

Classifying and naming edit

A p-tile can be called a t-turn m-adic n-gram, with 3 parameters n, m, t:

A polygram or n-gram, like monogram, digram, trigram, tetragram, pentagram, hexagram, etc. is any equilateral polygon with n-fold rotational symmetry.
A polyad or m-ad, like monad, dyad, triad, tetrad, pentad, hexad, etc. as the number of vertices with its symmetry of a polygram.
t-turn is the turning number. Crossed polygons, like a regular polygon with two vertices flipping places, can be a 0-turn which may be called counterturn. If we are interested in clockwise polygons, we can call them contra-t-turn.

An m-adic n-gram is an equilateral nm-gon. If m is 1, that qualifier can be suppressed.

Covers and compounds edit

A 4th parameter can be extracted, c-cover. If p:a₁.a₂…a_m^n is a valid polytile, then p:a₁.a₂…a_m^nc is a degenerate c-cover of it, repeating the same vertices and edges c times.

Multicovered polygons are degenerate and can’t be seen, but have a topological existence.

An ordinary interpretation of a c-cover regular polygon {ca/cb} factors out as c{a/b}, and draws it as a c-compound, adding rotated copies, giving ac-fold cyclic symmetry. This can be generalized for any polytile. A c-cover polytile, p:a₁.a₂…a_m^nc, is written as a c-compound c*p:a₁.a₂…a_m^n, interpreted as c rotated copies of p:a₁.a₂…a_m^n. A c-compound m-adic nc-gram has mnc vertices.

Shorter names for regular polygons (-are suffix) edit

Regular polygons (monadic, m=1) have no general specific names, except for the square. I propose we use the square as a guide, and use -are suffix for all regulars. An equilateral triangle becomes a trigram-are or triare for short. Regular polygons become: triare, tetrare, pentare, hexare, heptare, octare, etc.

Regular star polygons apply as well. A pentagram {5/2}, 2-turn monadic pentagram, becomes a 2-turn pentare. Generally, a regular {p/q} star polygon, p:q^p becomes a q-turn p-are.

Shorter names for isotoxal polygons (-us suffix) edit

An isotoxal or edge-transitive polygon (dyadic, m=2) has one edge type, 2 vertices within its symmetry. Polytile notation is: p:a.b^n. The smallest class are rhombi: p:a.b^2. Using the name rhombus as a standard, I propose a -us suffix. Then a rhombus is a digramus, or di-us for short. And in sequence: dius, trius, tetrus, pentus, etc.

Here we also find a new quality, convexity. The concave form will have one negative index, like p:-a.b^n (a, b positive). I differentiate as stella- prefix if concave and (optional) arch- prefix if convex, and lineo- if colinear edges. A concave isotoxal decagon can be called a stellapentus.

Shorter names for m-adic polygons edit

An m-adic n-gram can also be written as one word as n-gram-m-ad. An m-gon with no symmetry, a m-adic monogram, can be called a monogram-m-ad and mono-m-ad for short. An equilateral pentagon with no cyclic symmetry, a pentadic monogram, can be called a monogram-pentad and monopentad.

Number of convex tiles edit

A full set of convex polytiles represent all solutions for a given polygon. The numbers of forms are given below, chiral column counting chiral pairs. The number of tiles by sides are also given, with bold 1 given for regular polygon solutions.

Odd family polytiles, (2k+1)-tiles, are given for completeness. They are a subset of 2(2k-1)-tiles, identified with all odd-turn angle multipliers. The smallest odd solution is one triatile, with 6 triangles around a point, making a regular hexagon, and same as 6 hexagons for the first hexatile.

Examples edit

Regular tiles edit

Each set of n-tiles has regular p-gon tiles for whole number divisors of n, 3 or larger.

Example regular tiles
a^b	Tetratile 4	Hexatile 3,6	Octatile 4,8	Decatiles 5,10	Dodecatiles 3,4,6,12	Tetradecatiles 7,14	Hexadecatiles 4,8,16	Octadecatiles 3,6,9,18	Icosatiles 4,5,10,20
1^b	1⁴	1⁶	1⁸	1¹⁰	1¹²	1¹⁴	1¹⁶	1¹⁸	1²⁰
2^b		2³	2⁴	2⁵	2⁶	2⁷	2⁸	2⁹	2¹⁰
3^b					3⁴			3⁶
4^b					4³		4⁴		4⁵
5^b									5⁴
6^b								6³

Rhombic tiles edit

Rhombi are named as ab², where a and b are positive integers, making a 2(a+b)-tile. A rhombus has d4 symmetry.

Example rhombi
ab²	Tetratile	Hexatile	Octatile	Decatiles	Dodecatiles	Tetradecatiles	Hexadecatiles	Octadecatiles	Icosatiles
a1²	11²	21²	31²	41²	51²	61²	71²	81²	91²
a2²			22²	32²	42²	52²	62²	72²	82²
a3²					33²	43²	53²	63²	73²
a4²							44²	54²	64²

Elongated rhombic tiles edit

An elongated rhombus (hexagon) is named by aabaab or aba², where a and b are positive integers, making a 2(2a+b)-tile. If a>b, it makes a short hexagon, and b>a makes a tall hexagon. An elongated rhombus has i4 symmetry.
