The article introduces the mathematical concept of Penrose tilings, specifically focusing on the P3 variant which uses two rhombus prototiles. It outlines the subdivision rules based on Robinson triangles that allow for the recursive generation of these aperiodic patterns.
Background
Penrose tilings are famous examples of aperiodic sets of prototiles that can cover the plane without repeating periodically, discovered by Roger Penrose in the 1970s.
