Aperiodic tiling: History, Constructions & Physics

In the mathematics of tessellations, a non-periodic tiling is a tiling that does not have any translational symmetry. An aperiodic set of prototiles is a set of tile-types that can tile, but only non-periodically. The tilings produced by one of these sets of prototiles may be called aperiodic tilings.
