The Farey framework for SL2-tilings
This website is devoted to the project on using a combinatorial approach to explore the connections between number theory and geometry that arise around Conway–Coxeter friezes and SL2-tilings over integer numbers and other rings, carried out at the Open University, UK.
November 2024 highlights
- Triangulations and friezes, an interactive demonstration of the connections between triangulated polygons, paths in the Farey graph, Conway–Coxeter friezes, and cluster variables in the cluster algebra of type An.
- New short preprint: Enumerating tame friezes over ℤ/nℤ. Work done with Sammy Benzaira, whose internship at the OU has been supported by EPSRC grant EP/T518165/1.
