“…Then α 2 , ǫ 2 determine (all the angles of) P 2 . By V δ,1 = δ 3 or δǫ 3 and the non-adjacency of β 5 , ǫ 5 , we have V δ,2 = δ 3 , and get P 6 , δ 5 , δ 6 . Then β 5 , δ 5 determine P 5 .…”

“…We would like to thank Mr. Hoiping Luk for the preliminary work [3] for Lemma 1, and for the understanding of the special tiling as the exotic twisting of earth map tiling.…”
There are exactly eight edge-to-edge tilings of sphere by congruent equilateral pentagons: three pentagonal subdivision tilings, four earth map tilings, and one special tiling.

“…In a subsequent paper [1], we will further consider the angles and study the full geometrical congruence. We also note that Luk and Yan [4,5] studied the numerical aspects of the angle congruence for general edge-to-edge spherical pentagonal tilings. Now we describe the results of this paper.…”
We study edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by edge congruent pentagons, under the assumption that there are tiles with all vertices having degree 3. We develop the technique of neighborhood tilings and apply the technique to completely classify edge congruent earth map tilings.
“…For three angles α, β, γ at degree 3 vertices, we first list the full AVCs with α, β, γ as the only angles, then separately list the full AVCs with an angle δ appearing as αδ 3 , βδ 3 , γδ 3 , δ 4 or δ 5 .…”
We develop a systematic method for computing the angle combinations in spherical tilings by angle congruent pentagons, and study whether such combinations can be realized by actual angle or geometrically congruent tilings. We get major families of angle or geometrically congruent tilings related to the platonic solids.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
