  2. Crystallographic restriction theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallographic...

    Thus 5-fold rotational symmetry cannot be eliminated by an argument missing either of those assumptions. A Penrose tiling of the whole (infinite) plane can only have exact 5-fold rotational symmetry (of the whole tiling) about a single point, however, whereas the 4-fold and 6-fold lattices have infinitely many centres of rotational symmetry.

  3. Penrose tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose_tiling

    The pattern represented by every finite patch of tiles in a Penrose tiling occurs infinitely many times throughout the tiling. They are quasicrystals: implemented as a physical structure a Penrose tiling will produce diffraction patterns with Bragg peaks and five-fold symmetry, revealing the repeated patterns and fixed orientations of its tiles ...

  4. Pentagonal bifrustum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_bifrustum

    The pentagonal bifrustum is the dual polyhedron of a Johnson solid, the elongated pentagonal bipyramid.A Johnson solid is one of 92 strictly convex polyhedra that is composed of regular polygon faces but are not uniform polyhedra (that is, they are not Platonic solids, Archimedean solids, prisms, or antiprisms).

  5. Quasicrystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasicrystal

    The more precise mathematical definition is that there is never translational symmetry in more than n – 1 linearly independent directions, where n is the dimension of the space filled, e.g., the three-dimensional tiling displayed in a quasicrystal may have translational symmetry in two directions.

    A high-index reflective subgroup is the prismatic octahedral symmetry, [4,3,2] (), order 96, subgroup index 4, (Du Val #44 (O/C 2;O/C 2) *, Conway ± 1 / 24 [O×O].2). The truncated cubic prism has this symmetry with Coxeter diagram and the cubic prism is a lower symmetry construction of the tesseract, as .

  8. Fivefold Scapular - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fivefold_Scapular

    The Fivefold Scapular, also known as Redemptorist Scapular, is a sacramental made up of five best-known of the early scapulars in the Catholic Church: the Brown Scapular of the Carmelites, the Blue Scapular of the Immaculate Conception, the Black Scapular of the Servites, the Red Scapular of the Passion, and the White Scapular of the Most Holy Trinity.

  9. Panchikarana - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panchikarana

    Pancikarana is the "quintuplication" of the basic/primordial five subtle elements. The subtle elements stand alone ( tanmātrā ). During pancikarana , each is firstly divided into two halves, one part of which was further divided into four parts, equal to 1/8 parts of each subtle element, which then recombined with the undivided halves of each ...
