The pentaapeirogonal tiling, or pazt, is a paracompact uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. 2 apeirogons and 2 pentagons join at each vertex. It can be formed from the rectification of either the order-5 apeirogonal tiling or its dual order-∞ pentagonal tiling.

Representations[edit | edit source]

The tetraapeirogonal tiling has the following Coxeter diagrams:

  • o∞x5o () (full symmetry)
  • o5x∞x5*a () (half symmetry, 2 types of pentagons)
