We study the problem of discrete geometric packing. Here, given weighted regions (say in the plane) and points (with capacities), one has to pick a maximum weight subset of the regions such that no point is covered more than its capacity.…
A discrete set $A$ in the Euclidian space is almost periodic if the measure with the unite masses at points of the set is almost periodic in the weak sense. We investigate properties of such sets in the case when $A-A$ is discrete. In…
Approximate lattices of Euclidean spaces, also known as Meyer sets, are aperiodic subsets with fascinating properties. In general, approximate lattices are defined as approximate subgroups of locally compact groups that are discrete and…
More than 50 years ago, Golomb and Welch conjectured that there is no perfect Lee codes $C$ of packing radius $r$ in $\mathbb{Z}^{n}$ for $r\geq2$ and $n\geq 3$. Recently, Leung and the second author proved that if $C$ is linear, then the…
This paper presents the asymptotic analysis of random lattices in high dimensions to clarify the distance properties of the considered lattices. These properties not only indicate the asymptotic value for the distance between any pair of…
We show that there exists a lattice covering of $\mathbb{R}^n$ by Eucledian spheres of equal radius with density $O\big(n \ln^{\beta} n \big)$ as $n\to\infty$, where \begin{align*} \beta := \frac{1}{2} \log_2 \left(\frac{8 \pi…
We prove that supports of a wide class of temperate distributions with uniformly discrete support and spectrum on Euclidean spaces are finite unions of translations of full-rank lattices. This result is a generalization of the corresponding…
In \cite{Sz11} we have generalized the notion of the simplicial density function for horoballs in the extended hyperbolic space $\bar{\mathbf{H}}^n, ~(n \ge 2)$, where we have allowed {\it congruent horoballs in different types} centered at…
We study, via the replica method of disordered systems, the packing problem of hard-spheres with a square-well attractive potential when the space dimensionality, d, becomes infinitely large. The phase diagram of the system exhibits…
We obtain an upper bound to the packing density of regular tetrahedra. The bound is obtained by showing the existence, in any packing of regular tetrahedra, of a set of disjoint spheres centered on tetrahedron edges, so that each sphere is…
Dense packings of hard particles have important applications in many fields, including condensed matter physics, discrete geometry and cell biology. In this paper, we employ a stochastic search implementation of the Torquato-Jiao…
Packing problems have been of great interest in many diverse contexts for many centuries. The optimal packing of identical objects has been often invoked to understand the nature of low temperature phases of matter. In celebrated work,…
The effects of periodic and aperiodic distortions on the structure factor and radial distribution function of single-component lattices are investigated. To this end, different kinds of distortions are applied to the otherwise perfect…
Empirical constructions having maximal contact numbers of unit balls as putative best ones are presented for 20-27 balls.
We computationally study jammed disordered hard-sphere packings as large as a million particles. We show that the packings are saturated and hyperuniform, i.e., that local density fluctuations grow only as a logarithmically-augmented…
We propose an algebraic and a geometric classification of euclidean isodual lattices of fixed rank. First, we prove that these lattices are distribued according to a finite number of algebraic types. Second, we show that they are…
A one-dimensional lattice model with mosaic quasiperiodic potential is found to exhibit interesting localization properties, e.g., clear mobility edges [Y. Wang et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{125}, 196604 (2020)]. We generalize this…
In this paper we study the hard sphere packing problem in the Hamming space by the cavity method. We show that both the replica symmetric and the replica symmetry breaking approximations give maximum rates of packing that are asymptotically…
The hyperuniformity concept provides a unified means to classify all perfect crystals, perfect quasicrystals, and exotic amorphous states of matter according to their capacity to suppress large-scale density fluctuations. While the…
The notion of synthetic dimensions has expanded the realm of topological physics to four dimensional (4D) space lately. In this work, non-Hermiticity is used as a synthetic parameter in PT-symmetric photonic crystals to study the…
