Infinite-order apeirogonal tiling
From HandWiki
In geometry, the infinite-order apeirogonal tiling is a regular tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It has Schläfli symbol of {∞,∞}, which means it has countably infinitely many apeirogons around all its ideal vertices.
Symmetry
This tiling represents the fundamental domains of *∞∞ symmetry.
Uniform colorings
This tiling can also be alternately colored in the [(∞,∞,∞)] symmetry from 3 generator positions.
| Domains | 0 | 1 | 2 |

Related polyhedra and tiling
The union of this tiling and its dual can be seen as orthogonal red and blue lines here, and combined define the lines of a *2∞2∞ fundamental domain.
