I am working on projects in solving ground state of generalized Ising models. One recent work involves tiling with basic tiles that filled the whole lattice. For example, we could obtain results:
Every row corresponds to one constructible structure with basic tiles being "Generating configurations of the structure".
The resulting structures could be shown as followed:
9 and 12 are more complicated (can be periodic or aperiodic) shown as followed:
I realize (with the help of community), this is actually related to Wang tiles. So the first few steps I wish to approach this problem are looking into all established theorems on Wang tiles. Could someone suggest some relevant reference?
(PS:From engineering respective, I think we (in engineer department) commonly would agree that as long as we could keep tiling the plane to a sufficiently large extent( e.g use 100*100 tiles without conflict), then we blindly think these few basics tiles could tile the plane. So the undecidability is not too crucial...)
