Quasiperiodic tiling
Index of articles associated with the same name From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A quasiperiodic tiling is a tiling of the plane that exhibits local periodicity under some transformations: every finite subset of its tiles reappears infinitely often throughout the tiling, but there is no nontrivial way of superimposing the whole tiling onto itself so that all tiles overlap perfectly.[1]
