We consider two number-theoretic problems arising from Fuglede's spectral set conjecture: characterizing finite sets that tile integers, and finding polynomials with (0,1) coefficients whose roots have a certain multiplicative structure. We…
Tile B-splines in $\mathbb{R}^d$ are defined as autoconvolutions of the indicators of tiles, which are special self-similar compact sets whose integer translates tile the space $\mathbb{R}^d$. These functions are not piecewise-polynomial,…
We consider polygons with the following ``pairing property'': for each edge of the polygon there is precisely one other edge parallel to it. We study the problem of when such a polygon $K$ tiles the plane multiply when translated at the…
We study tilings of polygons $R$ with arbitrary convex polygonal tiles. Such tilings come in continuous families obtained by moving tile edges parallel to themselves (keeping edge directions fixed). We study how the tile shapes and areas…
If all tiles in a tiling are congruent, the tiling is called monohedral. Tiling by convex polygons is called edge-to-edge if any two convex polygons are either disjoint or share one vertex or one entire edge in common. In this paper, we…
We study finitely cyclic self-adjoint operators in a Hilbert space, i.e. self-adjoint operators that posses such a finite subset in the domain that the orbits of all its elements with respect to the operator are linearly dense in the space.…
Let $A,B\subset\mathbb{R}$. Define $$A\cdot B=\{x\cdot y:x\in A, y\in B\}.$$ In this paper, we consider the following class of self-similar sets with overlaps. Let $K$ be the attractor of the IFS $\{f_1(x)=\lambda x, f_2(x)=\lambda…
In the abstract Tile Assembly Model, self-assembling systems consisting of tiles of different colors can form structures on which colored patterns are ``painted.'' We explore the complexity, in terms of the numbers of unique tile types…
A projective mirror polyhedron is a projective polyhedron endowed with reflections across its faces. We construct an explicit diffeomorphism between the moduli space of a mirror projective polyhedron with fixed dihedral angles in…
Suppose $f\in L^1(\mathbb{R}^d)$, $\Lambda\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is a finite union of translated lattices such that $f+\Lambda$ tiles with a weight. We prove that there exists a lattice $L\subset{\mathbb{R}}^d$ such that $f+L$ also tiles,…
We study a family of self-affine tiles in $\mathbb{R}^d$ ($d\ge2$) with noncollinear digit sets, which naturally generalizes a class studied originally by Deng and Lau in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and its extension to $\mathbb{R}^3}$ by the authors.…
Somehow, the revised version of our paper \cite{KY} does not appear on journals' home page. Here we present the revised version altered to reflect the corrections and/or additions to that paper. In this note, we consider self-affine…
A locally finite face-to-face tiling of euclidean d-space by convex polytopes is called combinatorially multihedral if its combinatorial automorphism group has only finitely many orbits on the tiles. The paper describes a local…
The notion of weak tiling played a key role in the proof of Fuglede's spectral set conjecture for convex domains, due to the fact that every spectral set must weakly tile its complement. In this paper, we revisit the notion of weak tiling…
Inspired by the modelization of 2D materials systems, we characterize arrangements of identical nonflat squares in 3D. We prove that the fine geometry of such arrangements is completely characterized in terms of patterns of mutual…
A classical theorem of Hutchinson asserts that if an iterated function system acts on $\mathbb{R}^d$ by similitudes and satisfies the open set condition then it admits a unique self-similar measure with Hausdorff dimension equal to the…
This paper presents a detailed symbolic approach to the study of self-similar tilings. It uses properties of addresses associated with graph-directed iterated function systems to establish conjugacy properties of tiling spaces. Tiles may be…
We give a simple computational approach to mathematical quasicrystals, combining cut-and-project methods with self-similarity. Starting with a Pisot unit $\beta$ and an iterated function system $g_k(z)=\beta z +z_k, \ k=1,...,m$ in a…
We say that a tile is $\sigma$-morphic if it tiles the plane in exactly $\aleph_0$ many noncongruent ways (up to an isometry). It is an unsolved problem of whether a $\sigma$-morphic tile exist in the plane. In this note we present a…
In this paper, plane polynomial systems having a singular point attracting all orbits in positive time are classified up to topological equivalence. This is done by assigning a combinatorial invariant to the system (a so-called "feasible…
