Researchers uncover the mathematical structure behind mesmerizing tiling patterns, linking their visual appeal to the ...

Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly ...

In a recent study, mathematicians from Freie Universität Berlin have demonstrated that planar tiling, or tessellation, is much more than a way to create a pretty pattern. Consisting of a surface ...

A new study by mathematicians at Freie Universität Berlin shows that planar tiling, also known as tessellation, is far more than a decorative ...

Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume. Tessellations are created when a shape is repeated over and over again, covering a plane without any ...

At the annual Bridges conference, mathematical creativity was on dazzling display. By Siobhan Roberts It’s not much of an exaggeration to say that the Dutch sculptor Rinus Roelofs organizes his life ...

In an inventive but somewhat pedantic story about math, Enzo—a wizard’s son—struggles to perform spells, which only result in messes. When Enzo’s father is away, the miserly castle housekeeper demands ...
