Pattern Equivariant Mass Transport in Aperiodic Tilings and Cohomology

Dynamical Systems 2018-09-27 v1

Abstract

Suppose that we have a repetitive and aperiodic tiling T\bf T of Rn\mathbb{R}^n, and two mass distributions f1f_1 and f2f_2 on Rn\mathbb{R}^n, each pattern equivariant with respect to T\bf T. Under what circumstances is it possible to do a bounded transport from f1f_1 to f2f_2? When is it possible to do this transport in a strongly or weakly pattern-equivariant way? We reduce these questions to properties of the \v Cech cohomology of the hull of T\bf T, properties that in most common examples are already well-understood.
