Combinatorial coordinates for the aperiodic Spectre tiling

Read Original

This detailed technical article by Simon Tatham presents a method for generating the aperiodic Spectre tiling using combinatorial coordinates. It builds on previous work for Penrose and hat tilings, explaining the algorithm's adaptation to the chiral Spectre tile, which tiles the plane using only a single handedness. The content covers the tile's structure, transitions, and coordinate numbering system.
