  2. Crystallographic restriction theorem - Wikipedia

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

    We now confine our attention to the plane in which the symmetry acts (Scherrer 1946), illustrated with lattice vectors in the figure. Lattices restrict polygons Compatible: 6-fold (3-fold), 4-fold (2-fold) Incompatible: 8-fold, 5-fold. Now consider an 8-fold rotation, and the displacement vectors between adjacent points of the polygon.

  6. 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 ...

    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.
