We introduce the problem of partitioning 2D regions (usually convex regions) into mutually congruent pieces ('tiles').
CLIP's success has demonstrated that prompt tuning can achieve robust cross-modal semantic alignment for tasks ranging from open-domain recognition to fine-grained classification. However, redundant or weakly relevant feature components…
Polarization is well known for its ability to decompose diffuse and specular reflections. However, the existing decomposition methods only focus on direct reflection and overlook multiple reflections, especially specular inter-reflection.…
The G230LB grating used with STIS's CCD detector scatters red light. In red objects, the scattered light mingles with the ultraviolet signal, causing spurious short-wavelength flux and weakening absorption features. Recent calibration…
A set of tiles for covering a surface is composed of two types of tiles. The base shape of each one of them is a diamond or rhombus, both with angles 60 and 120 degrees. They are distinguished by labeling one as an acute diamond with a base…
This study explores the properties of the function which can tile the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers by translation. It is established that functions capable of tiling $\mathbb{Q}_p$ is by translation uniformly locally constancy.…
Starting with a substitution tiling, we demonstrate a method for constructing infinitely many new substitution tilings. Each of these new tilings is derived from a graph iterated function system and the tiles have fractal boundary. We show…
The mollified uniform distribution is rediscovered, which constitutes a ``soft'' version of the continuous uniform distribution. Important stochastic properties are presented and used to demonstrate potential fields of applications. For…
Motivated by applications in reliable and secure communication, we address the problem of tiling (or partitioning) a finite constellation in $\mathbb{Z}_{2^L}^n$ by subsets, in the case that the constellation does not possess an abelian…
A method is described for constructing, with computer assistance, planar substitution tilings that have n-fold rotational symmetry. This method uses as prototiles the set of rhombs with angles that are integer multiples of pi/n, and…
Step by step completion of a left-to-right tiling of a rectangular floor with tiles of a single shape starts from one edge of the floor, considers the possible ways of inserting a tile at the leftmost uncovered square, passes through a…
Tilings and point sets arising from substitutions are classical mathematical models of quasicrystals. Their hierarchical structure allows one to obtain concrete answers regarding spectral questions tied to the underlying measures and…
We propose a novel unifying approach to study the shadowing property for a broad class of dynamical systems (in particular, discontinuous and non-invertible) under a variety of perturbations. In distinction to known constructions, our…
It has been common knowledge since 1950 that seven colours can be assigned to tiles of an infinite honeycomb with cells of unit diameter such that no two tiles of the same colour are closer than $d(7)=\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}$ apart. Various…
Topology describes properties that remain unaffected by smooth distortions. Its main hallmark is the emergence of edge states localized at the boundary between regions characterized by distinct topological invariants. This feature offers…
We present a new type of polyominoes that can have transparent squares (holes). We show how these polyominoes can tile rectangles and we categorise them according to their tiling ability. We were able to categorise all but 6 polyominoes…
Grating spectra exhibit sharp variations of the scattered light, known as grating anomalies. The latter are due to resonances that have fascinated specialists of optics and physics for decades and are nowadays used in many applications. We…
A tilting phase transition is predicted for systems comprising rod like molecules which are irreversibly grafted to a flat surface, so that the non interacting rods are perpendicularly oriented. The transition is controlled by the grafting…
We classify edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent pentagons with the edge combination $a^4b$ and with rational angles in degree: they are a one-parameter family of symmetric $a^4b$-pentagonal subdivisions of the tetrahedron with…
Metasurfaces have attracted significant research interest owing to their unprecedented control over the spatial distributions of electromagnetic fields. Herein we propose the concept of metasurface tessellation to achieve reconfigurable…
