A translational tile with no fully periodic tiling in dimension three
OpenAI
Abstract
We construct a finite translational tile in ℤ that admits tilings but no fully periodic tiling. Its unit-cube thickening has the same property in ℝ, even when arbitrary real translations are allowed. This gives a negative resolution of the periodic tiling conjecture in dimension three.
