Jocelyn Etienne – research<p>I'm wondering: <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>physics</span></a> makes a lot of use of <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/periodic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>periodic</span></a> functions, in particular it is very useful to solve space-dependent equations in representative volumes with <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/periodicBoundaryConditions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>periodicBoundaryConditions</span></a>.</p><p>However I've only seen it done with periodicity along orthogonal directions, aligned with a Cartesian frame.</p><p>Do you know of work, e.g. <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/PDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PDE</span></a> resolution, in nonrectangular <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/periodicDomains" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>periodicDomains</span></a>?

(but with a sufficiently generic setting, not exploiting regular hexagon symmetries) Even better if the periodicity parameters themselves are among the unknowns.</p><p>(Maybe I'm completely missing something obvious there, I'm in my first steps towards defining what I want - any random thought on the topic highly welcome!)</p><p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/tiling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tiling</span></a> people?</p>

I mean, I've got the keyboard shortcuts set up very nicely, so it's just F12 to make the window appear and disappear, and then control+tab to cycle through tabs or control+pgup/pgdown to jump between panes, but somehow the tiling setup is just a bit easier to do.

Dani Laura (they/she/he)<p>These two art pieces are based on the deformation of a hexagonal tiling into a topologically equivalent "tiling" composed of parts of concentric circles, all parts having the same area (third image). Selecting one hexagon as the center, we transform it into a circle of radius 1. Next concentric circle will hold the 6 adjacent tiles as sectors of rings. And so on, the circle of level n will have radius sqrt(1+3·n·(n+1)) (difference of radius when n tends to infinity approaches sqrt(3)). This map can be coloured with three colours, like the hexagonal tiling. For the artwork, suppose each sector of ring is in fact a sector of a circle hidden by inner pieces. Then choose a colour and delete all pieces not of this colour. Two distinct set of sectors can be produced, one choosing the central colour, one choosing another colour. Finally recolour the pieces according to its size.<br><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/MathArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MathArt</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Art</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Mathematics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mathematics</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/geometry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>geometry</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/tiling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tiling</span></a></p>
