  2. Einstein problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_problem

    Such a shape is called an einstein, a word play on ein Stein, German for "one stone". [ 2 ] Several variants of the problem, depending on the particular definitions of nonperiodicity and the specifications of what sets may qualify as tiles and what types of matching rules are permitted, were solved beginning in the 1990s.

    The Zebra Puzzle is a well-known logic puzzle.Many versions of the puzzle exist, including a version published in Life International magazine on December 17, 1962. The March 25, 1963, issue of Life contained the solution and the names of several hundred successful solvers from around the world.

    David Smith is an amateur mathematician and retired print technician from Bridlington, England, [1] who is best known for his discoveries related to aperiodic monotiles that helped to solve the einstein problem. [2] [3]

  5. Craig S. Kaplan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_S._Kaplan

    In 2023, Kaplan was part of the team that solved the einstein problem, a major open problem in tiling theory and Euclidean geometry. The problem is to find an "aperiodic monotile", a single geometric shape which can tesselate the plane aperiodically (without translational symmetry) but which cannot do so periodically. The discovery is under ...

  6. Solutions of the Einstein field equations - Wikipedia

    Next, notice that only 10 of the original 14 equations are independent, because the continuity equation ; = is a consequence of Einstein's equations. This reflects the fact that the system is gauge invariant (in general, absent some symmetry, any choice of a curvilinear coordinate net on the same system would correspond to a numerically ...

  7. Exact solutions in general relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_solutions_in_general...

    In general relativity, an exact solution is a (typically closed form) solution of the Einstein field equations whose derivation does not invoke simplifying approximations of the equations, though the starting point for that derivation may be an idealized case like a perfectly spherical shape of matter.
