Tilings of the sphere by congruent pentagons. II: Edge combination \(a^3b^2\). (English) Zbl 1484.52017

The authors continue their classification of edge-to-edge tilings of the two-dimensional sphere by congruent images of one spherical pentagon, see [E. Wang and M. Yan, Adv. Math. 394, Article ID 107866, 36 p. (2022; Zbl 1484.52016)]. In the present paper they characterize all tilings based on pentagons whose consecutive edges are of lengths \(a-a-a-b-b\) with different \(a,b\). They obtain five one parameter families and ten specific tilings.
For Part III, see [Y. Akama and the authors, ibid. 384, Article ID 107881, 41 p. (2022; Zbl 1484.52014)].
