Abstract

On the one hand, Socolar showed in 1990 that the n-fold planar tilings admit weak local rules when n is not divisible by 4 (the n=10 case corresponds to the Penrose tilings and is known since 1974). On the other hand, Burkov showed in 1988 that the 8-fold tilings do not admit weak local rules, and Le showed the same for the 12-fold tilings (unpublished). We here show that this is actually the case for all the 4p-fold tilings.
