Greg Huber and Walter Trump – Topic: Riddles of the sphinx tilings

The sphinx tile is a simple, non-symmetrical shape that comes in left and right enantiomers and is proposed as a building block to explore chiral interactions in crowded spaces. The basic theory of sphinx tilings is lacking, so we have developed a succession of exact methods to find these tilings within finite frames. For large frames, the numbers of configurations become so large that statistical mechanics are obtained and Monte Carlo methods are required.
