  2. Einstein problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_problem

    Aperiodic tiling with "Tile(1,1)". The tiles are colored according to their rotational orientation modulo 60 degrees. [1] ( Smith, Myers, Kaplan, and Goodman-Strauss) In plane geometry, the einstein problem asks about the existence of a single prototile that by itself forms an aperiodic set of prototiles; that is, a shape that can tessellate space but only in a nonperiodic way.

  3. Aperiodic tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperiodic_tiling

    An aperiodic tiling using a single shape and its reflection, discovered by David Smith. An aperiodic tiling is a non-periodic tiling with the additional property that it does not contain arbitrarily large periodic regions or patches. A set of tile-types (or prototiles) is aperiodic if copies of these tiles can form only non- periodic tilings.

    Concretely, if A S has side lengths (1, 1, φ), then A L has side lengths (φ, φ, 1). B-tiles can be related to such A-tiles in two ways: If B S has the same size as A L then B L is an enlarged version φ A S of A S, with side lengths (φ, φ, φ 2 = 1 + φ) – this decomposes into an A L tile and A S tile joined along a common side of length 1.

  5. Golden ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio

    The golden ratio's negative −φ and reciprocal φ−1 are the two roots of the quadratic polynomial x2 + x − 1. The golden ratio is also an algebraic number and even an algebraic integer. It has minimal polynomial. This quadratic polynomial has two roots, and. The golden ratio is also closely related to the polynomial.

  6. Quantile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantile

    Quantile. Probability density of a normal distribution, with quantiles shown. The area below the red curve is the same in the intervals (−∞,Q1), (Q1,Q2), (Q2,Q3), and (Q3,+∞). In statistics and probability, quantiles are cut points dividing the range of a probability distribution into continuous intervals with equal probabilities, or ...

  7. Approximations of π - Wikipedia

    ((x),(y) = {239, 13 2} is a solution to the Pell equation x 2 − 2 y 2 = −1.) Formulae of this kind are known as Machin-like formulae . Machin's particular formula was used well into the computer era for calculating record numbers of digits of π , [ 39 ] but more recently other similar formulae have been used as well.
