Triangular tiling

The icosahedron is a roughly spherical object that is built up from 20 identical equilateral triangles. These triangular tiles are arranged side by side in such a way that they enclose the volume inside the icosahedron. Figure 16.3 shows a view of an icosahedron where there are 5 tiles at the top, 5 at the bottom, and 10 in a band around the middle region. These faces are identical in other words, identical icosahedra are obtained irrespective of which of the vertices is at the top in Figure 16.3a. [Pg.327]

Figure 16.S Schematic illustration of the way the 60 protein subunits are arranged around the shell of safellite tobacco necrosis virus. Each subunit is shown as an asymmetric A. The view is along one of the threefold axes, as in Figure 16.3a. (a) Three subunifs are positioned on one triangular tile of an Icosahedron, in a similar way to that shown in 16.4a. The red lines represent a different way to divide the surface of the icosahedron into 60 asymmetric units. This representation will be used in the following diagrams because it is easier to see the symmetry relations when there are more than 60 subunits in the shells, (b) All subunits are shown on the surface of the virus, seen in the same orientation as 16.4a. The shell has been subdivided into 60 asymmetric units by the red lines. When the corners are joined to the center of the virus, the particle is divided into 60 triangular wedges, each comprising an asymmetric unit of the virus. In satellite tobacco necrosis virus each such unit contains one polypeptide chain...

While the pentagon does not tile the plane, it does indeed tile the sphere. Twelve pentagons make up ti e pentagonal dodecahedron whose vertices lie on the sphere. Similarly, the icosahedron is a triangular tiling of the sphere with fivefold rotational symmetry. [Pg.44]

The triangular and hexagonal tilings are dual to each other, while the square tiling is self-dual. For other parameters (r, q), the tiling r, q lives in hyperbolic space H2 (see many pictures in [EpsOO]) but we will not need it. [Pg.19]
