Enumeration of tilings of quartered Aztec rectangles [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 We generalize a theorem of W. Jockusch and J. Propp on quartered Aztec diamonds by enumerating the tilings of quartered Aztec rectangles. We use subgraph replacement method to transform the dual graph of a quartered Aztec rectangle to the dual graph of a quartered lozenge hexagon, and then use Lindstr\"{o}m-Gessel-Viennot methodology to find the number
