t-embedding of an Aztec diamond graph and origami map     domino-tilings

Interactive SVG visualization of the t-embedding and origami map of an Aztec diamond graph with doubly periodic weights. Adjustable parameters n (diamond size) and a (weight) control the geometry. Pan and zoom the embedding; toggle the origami map overlay and vertex labels.

An illustration of the T-embedding of an Aztec diamond graph, together with the origami map, allowing a tunable doubly periodic weight (a). The case $a=1$ corresponds to standard Aztec diamond graph with uniform edge weights.
