Danzer Inflations

Inflations of Individual Vertices

This table shows the results of an inflation on each vertex of each tile. Lower case denotes a left-handed tile; the number denotes the participating vertex. For example, when the A tile has been inflated once, vertex 2 of a C tile and vertex 3 of a left-handed K tile come together at the point that was vertex 4 of the original A tile.

Vertex
Tile 1 2 3 4
A B3, b3, B3 B2, K2, k2 C3, c3 C2, k3
B b2, K2, k2 B3, b3 C3 B1, b1, C1, K1, K1, k1, k1
C a1 a2, C3, c3 K2 a3, c2
K B2, K2 B3 B1, K1 K4

Inflation of Vertex Configurations



This graph shows the effect of inflating each of the vertex configurations. Except for 8a, every cluster eventually inflates to one of the three 120-tile balls, which then cycle. The 22 global configurations are shown as ovals; the constructed ones are roundrects.
