Heptominoes
A heptomino (or 7-omino or septomino) is a polyomino of order 7; that is, a polygon in the plane made of 7 equal-sized squares connected edge to edge. The name of this type of figure is formed with the prefix hept(a)-. When rotations and reflections are not considered to be distinct shapes, there are 108 different ''free'' heptominoes. When reflections are considered distinct, there are 196 ''one-sided'' heptominoes. When rotations are also considered distinct, there are 760 ''fixed'' heptominoes. Symmetry The figure shows all possible free heptominoes, coloured according to their symmetry groups: *84 heptominoes (coloured grey) have no symmetry. Their symmetry group consists only of the identity mapping. *9 heptominoes (coloured red) have an axis of reflection symmetry aligned with the gridlines. Their symmetry group has two elements, the identity and the reflection in a line parallel to the sides of the squares. :: *7 heptominoes (coloured green) have an axis of reflection s ...

Conway Criterion
In the mathematical theory of tessellations, the Conway criterion, named for the English mathematician John Horton Conway, is a Necessity and sufficiency, sufficient rule for when a prototile will tile the plane. It consists of the following requirements:Will It Tile? Try the Conway Criterion!' by Doris Schattschneider Mathematics Magazine Vol. 53, No. 4 (Sep, 1980), pp. 224-233 The tile must be a Topological disc#Topological balls, closed topological disk with six consecutive points A, B, C, D, E, and F on the boundary such that: * the boundary part from A to B is Congruence (geometry), congruent to the boundary part from E to D by a Translation (geometry), translation T where T(A) = E and T(B) = D. * each of the boundary parts BC, CD, EF, and FA is Centrosymmetry, centrosymmetric—that is, each one is congruent to itself when rotated by 180-degrees around its midpoint. * some of the six points may coincide but at least three of them must be distinct.

Free Polyomino
A polyomino is a plane geometric figure formed by joining one or more equal squares edge to edge. It is a polyform whose cells are squares. It may be regarded as a finite subset of the regular square tiling. Polyominoes have been used in popular puzzles since at least 1907, and the enumeration of pentominoes is dated to antiquity. Many results with the pieces of 1 to 6 squares were first published in '' Fairy Chess Review'' between the years 1937 and 1957, under the name of "dissection problems." The name ''polyomino'' was invented by Solomon W. Golomb in 1953, and it was popularized by Martin Gardner in a November 1960 "Mathematical Games" column in ''Scientific American''. Related to polyominoes are polyiamonds, formed from equilateral triangles; polyhexes, formed from regular hexagons; and other plane polyforms. Polyominoes have been generalized to higher dimensions by joining cubes to form polycubes, or hypercubes to form polyhypercubes. In statistical physics, the stud ...

Rectangle
In Euclidean geometry, Euclidean plane geometry, a rectangle is a Rectilinear polygon, rectilinear convex polygon or a quadrilateral with four right angles. It can also be defined as: an equiangular quadrilateral, since equiangular means that all of its angles are equal (360°/4 = 90°); or a parallelogram containing a right angle. A rectangle with four sides of equal length is a ''square''. The term "wikt:oblong, oblong" is used to refer to a non-square rectangle. A rectangle with Vertex (geometry), vertices ''ABCD'' would be denoted as . The word rectangle comes from the Latin ''rectangulus'', which is a combination of ''rectus'' (as an adjective, right, proper) and ''angulus'' (angle). A #Crossed rectangles, crossed rectangle is a crossed (self-intersecting) quadrilateral which consists of two opposite sides of a rectangle along with the two diagonals (therefore only two sides are parallel). It is a special case of an antiparallelogram, and its angles are not right angles an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Tessellation
A tessellation or tiling is the covering of a surface, often a plane, using one or more geometric shapes, called ''tiles'', with no overlaps and no gaps. In mathematics, tessellation can be generalized to higher dimensions and a variety of geometries. A periodic tiling has a repeating pattern. Some special kinds include '' regular tilings'' with regular polygonal tiles all of the same shape, and '' semiregular tilings'' with regular tiles of more than one shape and with every corner identically arranged. The patterns formed by periodic tilings can be categorized into 17 wallpaper groups. A tiling that lacks a repeating pattern is called "non-periodic". An '' aperiodic tiling'' uses a small set of tile shapes that cannot form a repeating pattern (an aperiodic set of prototiles). A '' tessellation of space'', also known as a space filling or honeycomb, can be defined in the geometry of higher dimensions. A real physical tessellation is a tiling made of materials such as ...

Rotation And Reflection Symmetrical Heptominoes
Rotation or rotational/rotary motion is the circular movement of an object around a central line, known as an ''axis of rotation''. A plane figure can rotate in either a clockwise or counterclockwise sense around a perpendicular axis intersecting anywhere inside or outside the figure at a ''center of rotation''. A solid figure has an infinite number of possible axes and angles of rotation, including chaotic rotation (between arbitrary orientations), in contrast to rotation around a axis. The special case of a rotation with an internal axis passing through the body's own center of mass is known as a spin (or ''autorotation''). In that case, the surface intersection of the internal ''spin axis'' can be called a ''pole''; for example, Earth's rotation defines the geographical poles. A rotation around an axis completely external to the moving body is called a revolution (or ''orbit''), e.g. Earth's orbit around the Sun. The ends of the external ''axis of revolution'' can be call ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Klein Four-group
In mathematics, the Klein four-group is an abelian group with four elements, in which each element is Involution (mathematics), self-inverse (composing it with itself produces the identity) and in which composing any two of the three non-identity elements produces the third one. It can be described as the symmetry group of a non-square rectangle (with the three non-identity elements being horizontal reflection, vertical reflection and 180-degree rotation), as the group of bitwise operation, bitwise exclusive or, exclusive-or operations on two-bit binary values, or more abstract algebra, abstractly as \mathbb_2\times\mathbb_2, the Direct product of groups, direct product of two copies of the cyclic group of Order (group theory), order 2 by the Fundamental theorem of finitely generated abelian groups, Fundamental Theorem of Finitely Generated Abelian Groups. It was named ''Vierergruppe'' (, meaning four-group) by Felix Klein in 1884. It is also called the Klein group, and is often ...

Dihedral Group
In mathematics, a dihedral group is the group (mathematics), group of symmetry, symmetries of a regular polygon, which includes rotational symmetry, rotations and reflection symmetry, reflections. Dihedral groups are among the simplest examples of finite groups, and they play an important role in group theory, geometry, and chemistry. The notation for the dihedral group differs in geometry and abstract algebra. In geometry, or refers to the symmetries of the n-gon, -gon, a group of order . In abstract algebra, refers to this same dihedral group. This article uses the geometric convention, . Definition The word "dihedral" comes from "di-" and "-hedron". The latter comes from the Greek word hédra, which means "face of a geometrical solid". Overall it thus refers to the two faces of a polygon. Elements A regular polygon with n sides has 2n different symmetries: n rotational symmetry, rotational symmetries and n reflection symmetry, reflection symmetries. Usually, we take n ...
