We consider averaged shelling and coordination numbers of aperiodic tilings. Shelling numbers count the vertices on radial shells around a vertex. Coordination numbers, in turn, count the vertices on coordination shells of a vertex, defined…
Aperiodic tiling is a well-know area of research. First developed by mathematicians for the mathematical challenge they represent and the beauty of their resulting patterns, they became a growing field of interest when their practical use…
The convergence of a new general variable metric algorithm based on compositions of averaged operators is established. Applications to monotone operator splitting are presented.
The main goal of the paper is to prove convergence in norm and pointwise almost everywhere on $L^p$, $p\in (1,\infty)$, for certain multiparameter polynomial ergodic averages in the spirit of Dunford and Zygmund for continuous flows. We…
This paper establishes a universality result for scaling limits of uniformly random lozenge tilings of large domains. We prove that whenever a boundary of the domain has three adjacent straight segments inclined under 120 degrees to each…
The past decades have seen increasing interest in modelling uncertainty by heterogeneous methods, combining probability and interval analysis, especially for assessing parameter uncertainty in engineering models. A unifying mathematical…
We deal with a random graph model where at each step, a vertex is chosen uniformly at random, and it is either duplicated or its edges are deleted. Duplication has a given probability. We analyse the limit distribution of the degree of a…
Many real-world networks of interest are embedded in physical space. We present a new random graph model aiming to reflect the interplay between the geometries of the graph and of the underlying space. The model favors configurations with…
Ergodic properties of a renormalization procedure for studying the 1/2-discrepancy sums driven by rotations are studied, with corresponding implications for almost-sure bounds on the growth rates for these discrepancy sums.
We survey recent results on spectral properties of random Schr\"odinger operators. The focus is set on the integrated density of states (IDS). First we present a proof of the existence of a self-averaging IDS which is general enough to be…
We consider random fields indexed by finite subsets of an amenable discrete group, taking values in the Banach-space of bounded right-continuous functions. The field is assumed to be equivariant, local, coordinate-wise monotone, and almost…
We present a rejection method based on recursive covering of the probability density function with equal tiles. The concept works for any probability density function that is pointwise computable or representable by tabular data. By the…
How, in principle, could one solve the atomic structure of a quasicrystal, modeled as a random tiling decorated by atoms, and what techniques are available to do it? One path is to solve the phase problem first, obtaining the density in a…
Recently Taylor and Socolar introduced an aperiodic mono-tile. The associated tiling can be viewed as a substitution tiling. We use the substitution rule for this tiling and apply the algorithm of \cite{AL} to check overlap coincidence. It…
Tilings and tiling systems are an abstract concept that arise both as a computational model and as a dynamical system. In this paper, we characterize the sets of periods that a tiling system can produce. We prove that up to a slight…
In this survey we discuss spectral and quantum dynamical properties of discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators whose potentials are obtained by real-valued sampling along the orbits of an ergodic invertible transformation. After an…
We give an overview and extension of recent results on ergodic random Schr\"odinger operators for models on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The operators we consider are defined on combinatorial or metric graphs, with random potentials, random boundary…
Mining and exploring databases should provide users with knowledge and new insights. Tiles of data strive to unveil true underlying structure and distinguish valuable information from various kinds of noise. We propose a novel Boolean…
We consider discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators whose potentials are generated by H\"older continuous sampling along the orbits of a uniformly hyperbolic transformation. For any ergodic measure satisfying a suitable bounded…
The paper deals with homogenization of divergence form second order parabolic operators whose coefficients are periodic in spatial variables and random stationary in time. Under proper mixing assumptions, we study the limit behaviour of the…
