Some tiles associated with the 6th unit cubic Pisot number

Overview

In 2002 I investigated low order metallic (where the ratio of areas is a metallic mean) and cubic (where the ratio of areas is a cubic Pisot number) tiles, including those associated the 6th unit cubic Pisot number (the real root of x3-2x2-1=0, with a value of approximately 2.20556943040059).

The contraction ratio for such tiles is an integral power of the square root of the reciprocal of the Pisot number (approximately 0.67334809089831373) and the rotation the corresponding multiple of approximately 81.2196317797693513°.

This gives a total of 694 tiles (8 order 3 tiles, 60 order 5 tiles and 626 order 7 tiles). There may well be other tiles. There are predicted to be several thousand order 9 tiles.
