Erratum to “A class of prototiles with doubly generated level semigroups” [Journal of Combinatorial Theory-Series A 106 (2004) 1–13]

A d-fold uniform covering of Rn by elementary shapes is a level d multiple tiling of Rn. The set of level values for which a prototile (a model shape) admits a multiple tiling is called the level semigroup of the prototile. In this paper we discuss the existence of prototiles with nontrivial level semigroups: for instance, does there exist a prototile admitting both tilings of levels 2 and 3, yet not admitting any tilings of level 1? The answer is yes—in fact, we show that for any a,b∈N there is a prototile whose level semigroup is exactly the set of nonnegative integer linear combinations of a and b.
