The boundary characteristic and Pick's theorem in the Archimedean planar tilings

Abstract The tiling of the plane by unit squares is only one of the 11 Archimedean tilings which use regular polygons and have only one type of vertex. In this paper, the boundary characteristic of a lattice polygon is defined for every Archimedean tiling, and related enumeration formulae are found. Pick's theorem (on the area of a lattice polygon in the tilling by squares) is then generalized for lattice polygons in each of the Archimedean tilings, by enumerating the number of tiles of each type in the polygon.
