In geometry, the rhombitetraapeirogonal tiling is a uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It has Schläfli symbol of rr{∞,4}.

Constructions

There are two uniform constructions of this tiling, one from or (*∞42) symmetry, and secondly removing the mirror middle, , gives a rectangular fundamental domain , (*∞222).

Symmetry

The dual of this tiling, called a deltoidal tetraapeirogonal tiling represents the fundamental domains of (*∞222) orbifold symmetry. Its fundamental domain is a Lambert quadrilateral, with 3 right angles.
