Digon by a line segment, without affecting the overall characteristics. The cyclic groups may be obtained as rotation symmetries of polygons: the rotational symmetries of the digon provide the group C. Digon In geometry, a digon is a polygon with two sides (edges) and two vertices. Its construction is degenerate in a Euclidean plane because either the two sides would coincide or one or both would have to be curved; however, it can be easily visualised in elliptic space. A regular digon has both angles equal and both sides equal and is represented by Schläfli symbol {2}. It may be constructed
Euclidean tilings by convex regular polygons uniformity which requires edge-to-edge regular polygons. Such isogonal tilings are actually topologically identical to the uniform tilings, with different geometric proportions. Euclidean and general tiling links: Euclidean tilings by convex regular polygons Euclidean plane tilings by convex regular polygons have been widely used since antiquity. The first systematic mathematical treatment was that of Kepler in his "Harmonices Mundi" (Latin: "The Harmony of the World", 1619). Following Grünbaum and Shephard (section 1.3), a tiling is said to be "regular" if the symmetry group of the tiling acts transitively on the "flags" of the tiling, where a flag is a triple consisting
