We investigate the problem of packing identical hard objects on regular lattices in d dimensions. Restricting configuration space to parallel alignment of the objects, we study the densest packing at a given aspect ratio X. For rectangles and ellipses on the square lattice as well as for biaxial ellipsoids on a simple cubic lattice, we calculate the maximum packing fraction φ(d)(X). It is proved to be continuous with an infinite number of singular points X(ν)(min), X(ν)(max), ν = 0, ±1, ±2… CONTINUE READING
