Some of the most remarkable tilings and discrete quasiperiodic sets used in quasicrystal physics can be obtained by using strip projection method in a superspace of dimension four, five or six, and the projection of a unit hypercube as a…
The notion of quasi-unit has been introduced by Yosida in unital Riesz spaces. Later on, a fruitful potential theoretic generalization was obtained by Arsove and Leutwiler. Due to the work of Eriksson and Leutwiler, this notion also turned…

Atomic-resolution electron microscope images show that a quasicrystal is a quasiperiodic packing of clusters. The outer atomic shells of multi-shell clusters occuring in quasicrystals are highly symmetric and rather robust, but some…
We prove that the set of orthogonal projections on a Hilbert space equipped with the length metric is $\frac\pi2$-geodesic. As an application, we consider the problem of variation of spectral subspaces for bounded linear self-adjoint…

Using the spectral approach, we analyze the effective properties of a composite which deviates slightly from periodicity. We find that, when the inclusions are randomly displaced from their equilibrium positions, the sharp resonances seen…
In this work, we develop a new systematic and self-consistent approach to homogenize arbitrary non-magnetic periodic metamaterials. The proposed method does not rely on the solution of an eigenvalue problem and can fully characterize the…
