The commensurable-sides conjecture for tilings
The commensurable-sides conjecture for tilings
Let a non-reptile tiling have incommensurable angles and let the tile angle denoted by satisfy
Commensurable-sides conjecture. The tiling must have commensurable sides.
The paper notes that most constructions use an equilateral triangle as an intermediate object, for which commensurability is known, and suggests that a construction violating the conjecture would need to avoid such an intermediary. The conjecture remains open in the supplied text.
