Mathematicians are finding inevitable structures in sufficiently large sets of integers. Despite that, Furstenberg’s paper left a lasting imprint on mathematics. His new argument contained a kernel of ...

Most patterns eventually repeat themselves. But in the 1970s, mathematician Roger Penrose discovered a set of shapes that could cover an infinite plane without ever repeating. Known as Penrose tilings ...

A new shape called an einstein has taken the math world by storm. The craggy, hat-shaped tile can cover an infinite plane with patterns that never repeat. Creatively tiling a bathroom floor isn’t just ...
