A self-affine tiling of a compact set G of positive Lebesgue measure is its partition to parallel shifts of a compact set which is affinely similar to G. We find all polyhedral sets (unions of finitely many convex polyhedra) that admit…

It is, by now, classical that lattices in higher rank semisimple groups have various rigidity properties. In this work, we add another such rigidity property to the list: uniform stability with respect to the family of unitary operators on…

Every sufficiently regular space of tilings of $\R^d$ has at least one pair of distinct tilings that are asymptotic under translation in all the directions of some open $(d-1)$-dimensional hemisphere. If the tiling space comes from a…

We study the minimal complexity of tilings of a plane with a given tile set. We note that every tile set admits either no tiling or some tiling with O(n) Kolmogorov complexity of its n-by-n squares. We construct tile sets for which this…

We study classical dimers on two-dimensional quasiperiodic Ammann-Beenker (AB) tilings. Despite the lack of periodicity we prove that each infinite tiling admits 'perfect matchings' in which every vertex is touched by one dimer. We…

We consider substitution tilings and Delone sets without the assumption of finite local complexity (FLC). We first give a sufficient condition for tiling dynamical systems to be uniquely ergodic and a formula for the measure of cylinder…

We formulate and prove a non-abelian analog of Deligne's Fixed Part theorem on Hodge classes, revisiting previous work of Jost--Zuo, Katzarkov--Pantev and Landesman--Litt. To this aim we study algebraically isomonodromic extensions of local…

How do people come up with new sets of tiles including new tile shapes that would only tile non-periodically? This paper presents our graphical journey in tilings and provides a new set of three polyominoes named Ax for its relationship…

In this paper we prove that if two self-similar tiling systems, with respective stretching factors $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$, have a common factor which is a non periodic tiling system, then $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are…

The strict geometric rules that define aperiodic tilings lead to the unique spectral and transport properties of quasicrystals, but also limit our ability to design them. In this Letter, we explore a novel example of a continuously tunable…

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…

The top of the attractor $A$ of a hyperbolic iterated function system $\left\{ f_{i}:\mathbb{R}^{n}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^{n}|i=1,2,\dots,M\right\} $ is defined and used to extend self-similar tilings to overlapping systems. The theory…

An algorithm is provided to tile the plane with the aperiodic monotile Tile(1,1) recently discovered by Smith et al. (2023). Their geometric construction guidelines are expanded into a numerical MATLAB algorithm. The intention is to remove…

Let $X$ be a measure space with a measure-preserving action $(g,x) \mapsto g \cdot x$ of an abelian group $G$. We consider the problem of understanding the structure of measurable tilings $F \odot A = X$ of $X$ by a measurable tile $A…

Recent work has shown that if an isostatic bar and joint framework possesses non-trivial symmetries, then it must satisfy some very simply stated restrictions on the number of joints and bars that are `fixed' by various symmetry operations…
