Discovered Tilings
The substitution tilings which are most relevant as models for physical quasicrystals are 5-fold, 8-fold, 10-fold and 12-fold symmetric ones. In the 5-fold (resp. 10-fold) case, there are the variations of the Penrose rhomb tilings and the Tuebingen triangle, for the 8-fold case there are the …
Beside the Penrose rhomb tilings (and its variations), this is a classical candidate to model 5-fold (resp. 10-fold) quasicrystals. The inflation factor is - as in the Penrose case - the golden mean, $\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2} + \frac{1}{2}$. The prototiles are Robinson triangles, but these tilings are not …
