Abstract

The relative density of visible points of the integer lattice Zd\mathbb{Z}^d is known to be 1/ζ(d)1/\zeta(d) for d2d\geq 2, where ζ\zeta is Riemann's zeta function. In this paper we prove that the relative density of visible points in the Ammann-Beenker point set is given by 2(21)/ζK(2)2(\sqrt{2}-1)/\zeta_K(2), where ζK\zeta_K is Dedekind's zeta function over K=Q(2)K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}).
