TILINGS OF THE SPHERE BY CONGRUENT QUADRILATERALS II: EDGE COMBINATION WITH RATIONAL ANGLES
Edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals are completely classified in a series of three papers. This second one applies the powerful tool of trigonometric Diophantine equations to classify the case of
$a^3b$
-quadrilaterals with all angles being rational degrees. There are
$12$
sporadic and
$3$
infinite sequences of quadrilaterals admitting the two-layer earth map tilings together with their modifications, and
$3$
sporadic quadrilaterals admitting
$4$
exceptional tilings. Among them only three quadrilaterals are convex. New interesting non-edge-to-edge triangular tilings are obtained as a byproduct.
期刊介绍:
The Nagoya Mathematical Journal is published quarterly. Since its formation in 1950 by a group led by Tadashi Nakayama, the journal has endeavoured to publish original research papers of the highest quality and of general interest, covering a broad range of pure mathematics. The journal is owned by Foundation Nagoya Mathematical Journal, which uses the proceeds from the journal to support mathematics worldwide.
