We consider two number-theoretic problems arising from Fuglede's spectral set conjecture: characterizing finite sets that tile integers, and finding polynomials with (0,1) coefficients whose roots have a certain multiplicative structure. We…
In relation to Fuglede's conjecture, we establish several Plancherel-type identities and demonstrate the surjectivity of the Fourier transform between certain unbounded tiling sets of $\mathbb{R}$ that are in duality. In the terminology…
A point in the interior of a planar triangle determines a subdivision into six subtriangles. A triangle with angles commensurable with $\pi$ is called $\pi$-commensurable. For such a triangle a subdivision where each of the subtriangles are…
We introduce a method for constructing collections of subsets of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, using an iterated function system, a set $T,$ and a cost function. We refer to these collections as tilings. The special case where $T$ is the central open…
A set of integers $A$ is computably encodable if every infinite set of integers has an infinite subset computing $A$. By a result of Solovay, the computably encodable sets are exactly the hyperarithmetic ones. In this paper, we extend this…
The Turing degree of a real measures the computational difficulty of producing its binary expansion. Since Turing degrees are tailsets, it follows from Kolmogorov's 0-1 law that for any property which may or may not be satisfied by any…
We show that there are Turing complete computably enumerable sets of arbitrarily low non-trivial initial segment prefix-free complexity. In particular, given any computably enumerable set $A$ with non-trivial prefix-free initial segment…
We prove intuitionistic versions of the classical theorems saying that all countable closed subsets of $[-\pi,\pi]$ and even all countable subsets of $[-\pi,\pi]$ are sets of uniqueness.
In \cite{J}, Theorem 4.2, Jockusch proves that for any computable k-coloring of pairs of integers, there is an infinite $\Pi^0_2$ homogeneous set. The proof uses a countable collection of $\Pi^0_2$ sets as potential infinite homogeneous…
We investigate the truth-table degrees of (co-)c.e.\ sets, in particular, sets of random strings. It is known that the set of random strings with respect to any universal prefix-free machine is Turing complete, but that truth-table…
In this article, we prove that a compact open set in the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers is a spectral set if and only if it tiles $\mathbb{Q}_p$ by translation, and also if and only if it is $p$-homogeneous which is easy to check.…
We count tilings of a rectangle of integer sides m-1 and n-1 by a special set of tiles. The result is obtained fron the study of the kernel of the adjacency matrix of an n x n rectangular graph of Z x Z.
Given a hypersurface in a complex projective space, we prove that the multidegrees of its toric polar map agree, up to sign, with the coefficients of the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a distinguished open set, namely the complement of…
We consider the self-affine tiles with collinear digit set defined as follows. Let $A,B\in\mathbb{Z}$ satisfy $|A|\leq B\geq 2$ and $M\in\mathbb{Z}^{2\times2}$ be an integral matrix with characteristic polynomial $x^2+Ax+B$. Moreover, let…
Let $C(\mathbf I)$ be the set of all continuous self-maps from ${\mathbf I}=[0,1]$ with the topology of uniformly convergence. A map $f\in C({\mathbf I})$ is called a transitive map if for every pair of non-empty open sets $U,V$ in…
Tilings of the plane resemble the simplicial and other complexes from algebraic topology, but have not been studied from this perspective. We construct finite categories corresponding to polygons with labeled directed edges, and introduce…
Let T be the family of open subsets of a topological space (not necessarily Hausdorff or even T_0). We prove that if T has a countable base and is not countable, then T has cardinality at least continuum.
We prove that fairly general spaces of tilings of R^d are fiber bundles over the torus T^d, with totally disconnected fiber. This was conjectured (in a weaker form) in [W3], and proved in certain cases. In fact, we show that each such space…
The study of automorphisms of computable and other structures connects computability theory with classical group theory. Among the noncomputable countable structures, computably enumerable structures are one of the most important objects of…
The Golomb space $\mathbb N_\tau$ is the set $\mathbb N$ of positive integers endowed with the topology $\tau$ generated by the base consisting of arithmetic progressions $\{a+bn\}_{n=0}^\infty$ with coprime $a,b$. We prove that the Golomb…
