Ah, OK: my restriction (same M) is for lattice tilings. This reduced the search space from "impossible" to "still hard work" for my computer assisted search. Best regards, jj * Allan Wechsler <acwacw@gmail.com> [Jun 22. 2018 07:32]:
I had not heard the requirement that M be the same for all the maps. I assume the rest of the definition is that map_i(R) and map_j(R) have disjoint interiors for all i,j < n, and that union (i < n) (map_i(R)) = R. If that's the case, then we also need a scaling factor k, so map(v) = t + M(kv). If the dimension of the containing space in D, then k = (1/n) ^ (1/D) (or something like that).

3D rep-tiles that are not derived from 2D rep-tiles are currently quite rare.
Is this really a rep-tile? I thought for those you take a set of affine maps map_i(v) := t_i + M * v where M is a rotation (the same for all maps!) and only the translations t_i are different.
I created a few 3D fractals using 8 such maps a while ago, using either cubes, rhombic dodecahedra, or truncated octahedra. These things a lattice tilings.
Not all of them are genus 0 in the limit.
