We study the dynamics of one--dimensional discrete models of one--component active medium built up of spatially inhomogeneous chains of diffusively coupled piecewise linear maps. The nonhomogeneities (``defects'') are treated in terms of…
We analyze the origin and features of localized excitations in a discrete two-dimensional Hamiltonian lattice. The lattice obeys discrete translational symmetry, and the localized excitations exist because of the presence of nonlinearities.…

The concept of local symmetry dynamics has recently been used to demonstrate the evolution of discrete symmetries in one-dimensional chains leading to emergent periodicity. Here we go one step further and show that the unboundedness of this…
A periodic lattice in Euclidean space is the infinite set of all integer linear combinations of basis vectors. Any lattice can be generated by infinitely many different bases. This ambiguity was only partially resolved, but standard…
Symmetry sharing facilitates coherent interfaces which can transition from periodic to aperiodic structures. Motivated by the design and construction of such systems, we present hexagonal aperiodic tilings with a single edge-length which…
