Abstract
An edge-n-coloring of a uniform tiling {\cal T} is uniform if for any two vertices of {\cal T} there is a symmetry of {\cal T} that preserves the colors of the edges and maps one vertex onto the other. This paper gives a method based on group theory and color symmetry theory to arrive at uniform edge-n-colorings of uniform tilings. The method is applied to give a complete enumeration of uniform edge-n-colorings of the uniform tilings of the Euclidean plane, for which the results point to a total of 114 colorings, n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Examples of uniform edge-n-colorings of tilings in the hyperbolic plane and two-dimensional sphere are also presented.
期刊介绍:
Acta Crystallographica Section A: Foundations and Advances publishes articles reporting advances in the theory and practice of all areas of crystallography in the broadest sense. As well as traditional crystallography, this includes nanocrystals, metacrystals, amorphous materials, quasicrystals, synchrotron and XFEL studies, coherent scattering, diffraction imaging, time-resolved studies and the structure of strain and defects in materials.
The journal has two parts, a rapid-publication Advances section and the traditional Foundations section. Articles for the Advances section are of particularly high value and impact. They receive expedited treatment and may be highlighted by an accompanying scientific commentary article and a press release. Further details are given in the November 2013 Editorial.
The central themes of the journal are, on the one hand, experimental and theoretical studies of the properties and arrangements of atoms, ions and molecules in condensed matter, periodic, quasiperiodic or amorphous, ideal or real, and, on the other, the theoretical and experimental aspects of the various methods to determine these properties and arrangements.
