Time-variant systems have recently garnered considerable attention due to their unique potentials in manipulating electromagnetic waves. Here, a novel class of topological spacetime crystals is introduced, with a traveling-wave modulation…
Periodic trees are combinatorial structures which are in bijection with cluster tilting objects in cluster categories of affine type $\tilde{A}_{n-1}$. The internal edges of the tree encode the $c$-vectors corresponding to the cluster…
Aperiodic tilings support two classically studied but hitherto separately presented structures: matching rules, which enforce global order via local constraints, and height functions, which encode global geometry through integer-valued…
Identity-homotopic self-homeomorphisms of a space of non-periodic 1-dimensional tiling are generalizations of orientation-preserving self-homeomorphisms of circles. We define the analogue of rotation numbers for such maps. In constrast to…
We define rules for cellular automata played on quasiperiodic tilings of the plane arising from the multigrid method in such a way that these cellular automata are isomorphic to Conway's Game of Life. Although these tilings are nonperiodic,…
We develop the necessary machinery in order to prove that hexagonal tilings are uniquely determined by their Tutte polynomial, showing as an example how to apply this technique to the toroidal hexagonal tiling.
The article 'A "regular" pentagonal tiling of the plane' by P. L. Bowers and K. Stephenson defines a conformal pentagonal tiling. This is a tiling of the plane with remarkable combinatorial and geometric properties. However, it doesn't have…
We provide a proof of the Alpern multi-tower theorem for Z^d actions. We reformulate the theorem as a problem of measurably tiling orbits of a Z^d action by a collection of rectangles whose corresponding sides have no non-trivial common…
We demonstrate experimentally the generation of square and hexagonal lattices of optical vortices and reveal their propagation in a saturable nonlinear medium. If the topological charges of the vortices are of the same sign the lattice…
We define 2-dimensional topological substitutions. A tiling of the Euclidean plane, or of the hyperbolic plane, is substitutive if the underlying 2-complex can be obtained by iteration of a 2-dimensional topological substitution. We prove…
The effect of temporal modulation on traveling waves in the flows in two distinct systems of rotating cylinders, both with broken azimuthal symmetry, has been investigated. It is shown that by modulating the control parameter at twice the…
We construct a limit aperiodic coloring of hyperbolic groups. Also we construct limit strongly aperiodic strictly balanced tilings of the Davis complex for all Coxeter groups.
Short proof of the aperiodicity of the Robinson tile set.
The theory of fractal tilings of fractal blow-ups is extended to graph-directed iterated function systems, resulting in generalizations and extensions of some of the theory of Anderson and Putnam and of Bellisard et al. regarding…
Introducing an axis of reflectional symmetry in a quasicrystal leads to the creation of localised edge modes that can be used to build waveguides. We develop theory that characterises reflection-induced localised modes in materials that are…
A recursive scheme relying on decagons is used to generate Penrose-like sublattices or tilings. Its relevance for understanding structures with non-crystallographic symmetry is discussed.
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…
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…
This paper describes new, simple, recursive methods of construction for orientable sequences, i.e. periodic binary sequences in which any n-tuple occurs at most once in a period in either direction. As has been previously described, such…
The class of Cyclotomic Aperiodic Substitution Tilings (CAST) whose vertices are supported by the $2n$-th cyclotomic field $\mathbb{Q}\left(\zeta_{2n}\right)$ is extended to cases with Dense Tile Orientations (DTO). It is shown that every…
