Aperiodic tilings support two classically studied but hitherto separately presented structures: matching rules, which enforce global order via local constraints, and height functions, which encode global geometry through integer-valued…
We show how we found substitution rules for a quasiperiodic tiling with local rotational symmetry and inflation factor 1 + sqrt(3). The base tiles are a square, a rhomb with an acute angle of 30 degrees, and equilateral triangles that are…
The surprising recent discoveries of quasicrystals and their approximants in soft matter systems poses the intriguing possibility that these structures can be realized in a broad range of nano- and micro-scale assemblies. It has been…

Discrete de Rham (DDR) methods provide non-conforming but compatible approximations of the continuous de Rham complex on general polytopal meshes. Owing to the non-conformity, several challenges arise in the analysis of these methods. In…
