Self-dual tilings | Triangular tilings | Honeycombs (geometry)
The triangular tiling honeycomb is one of 11 paracompact regular space-filling tessellations (or honeycombs) in hyperbolic 3-space. It is called paracompact because it has infinite cells and vertex figures, with all vertices as ideal points at infinity. It has Schläfli symbol {3,6,3}, being composed of triangular tiling cells. Each edge of the honeycomb is surrounded by three cells, and each vertex is ideal with infinitely many cells meeting there. Its vertex figure is a hexagonal tiling. A geometric honeycomb is a space-filling of polyhedral or higher-dimensional cells, so that there are no gaps. It is an example of the more general mathematical tiling or tessellation in any number of dimensions. Honeycombs are usually constructed in ordinary Euclidean ("flat") space, like the convex uniform honeycombs. They may also be constructed in non-Euclidean spaces, such as hyperbolic uniform honeycombs. Any finite uniform polytope can be projected to its circumsphere to form a uniform honeycomb in spherical space. (Wikipedia).

Domino tilings of squares | MegaFavNumbers
This video is part of the #MegaFavNumbers project. Domino tiling is a tessellation of the region in the Euclidean plane by dominos (2x1 rectangles). In this video we consider square tilings. Sequence, where each element is equal to the number of tilings of an NxN square, is growing reall

Yoshiyuki Kotani -Tiling of 123456-edged Hexagon - G4G13 Apr 2018
The theme is the tiling of flat plane by the hexagon which has the edges of 1,2,3,4,5,6 length, and that of other polygons of different edges. It is a very tough problem to make a tiling by a different edged polygon. Polygon tiling of plane often needs edges of the same lengths. It is well
