Truncated tetraheptagonal tiling

In geometry, the truncated tetraheptagonal tiling is a uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It has Schläfli symbol of tr{4,7}.

Symmetry

The dual to this tiling represents the fundamental domains of [7,4] (*742) symmetry. There are three small index subgroups constructed from [7,4] by mirror removal and alternation. In these images fundamental domains are alternately colored black and white, and mirrors exist on the boundaries between colors.
