Is there a single tile which can only tile the plane aperiodically?
Is there an algorithm for determining whether a collection of tiles will tile the plane?
Which L-shapes (i.e. six-sided polygons formed by cutting a rectangle out of one corner of a rectangle) can be tiled with squares?
Are there any other types of convex pentagons that tile the plane?
