Abstract

A new method, developed in previous works by the author (partly with co‐authors), is presented which decides algorithmically, in principle by computer, whether a combinatorial space tiling (,Γ) is realizable in the d‐dimensional Euclidean space Ed (think of d = 2, 3, 4) or in other homogeneous spaces, e.g. in Thurston's 3‐geometries: Then our group Γ will be an isometry group of a projective metric 3‐sphere , acting discontinuously on its above tiling . The method is illustrated by a plane example and by the well known rhombohedron tiling , where Γ = Rm is the Euclidean space group No. 166 in International Tables for Crystallography.
