Abstract
A domino (resp., lozenge) tiling is a covering of a region on the square (resp., triangular) lattice using dominoes (resp., lozenges) without gaps or overlaps. In this talk, I will introduce the physical background of these objects and several classical techniques for enumerating tilings of specific regions. Finally, I will present recent results regarding the symmetry classes of domino tilings of the Aztec diamonds. This talk does not assume any prior background; undergraduate students are welcome.Download:Talk_1150512.pdf
