Abstract

Abstract If G is the symmetry group of an uncolored pattern then a coloring of the pattern is semiperfect if the associated color group H is a subgroup of G of index 2. We give results on how to identify and enumerate all inequivalent semiperfect colorings of certain patterns. This is achieved by treating a coloring as a partition hJ i Y i : i ∈ I, h ∈ H of G , where H is a subgroup of index 2 in G , J i ≤ H for i ∈ I , and Y = ∪ i ∈ I Y i is a complete set of right coset representatives of H in G . We also give a one-to-one correspondence between inequivalent semiperfect colorings whose associated color groups are conjugate subgroups with respect to the normalizer of G in the group of isometries of R n .
