Abstract: We define the notion of infinite friezes of positive integers as a variation of Conway-Coxeter frieze patterns and study their properties. We introduce useful gluing and cutting operations on infinite friezes. It turns out that triangulations of once-punctured discs give rise to periodic infinite friezes having special properties, a notable example being that each diagonal consists of a collection of arithmetic progressions. Furthermore, we work out a combinatorial interpretation of the entries of infinite friezes associated to triangulations of once-punctured discs via matching numbers for certain combinatorial objects, namely periodic triangulations of strips. Alternatively, we consider a known algorithm that as we show computes as well these entries.
