We look at sets of tiles that can tile any region of size greater than 1 on the square grid. This is not the typical tiling question, but relates closely to it and therefore can help solve other tiling problems -- we give an example of…
In \emph{$k$-bootstrap percolation}, we fix $p\in (0,1)$, an integer $k$, and a plane graph $G$. Initially, we infect each face of $G$ independently with probability $p$. Infected faces remain infected forever, and if a healthy (uninfected)…
We study deviation of ergodic averages for dynamical systems given by self-similar tilings on the plane and in higher dimensions. The main object of our paper is a special family of finitely-additive measures for our systems. An asymptotic…
In this paper, we study the structure of the set of tilings produced by any given tile-set. For better understanding this structure, we address the set of finite patterns that each tiling contains. This set of patterns can be analyzed in…
Let $A$ be a hereditary algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$ and $A^{(m)}$ be the $m$-replicated algebra of $A$. Given an $A^{(m)}$-module $T$, we denote by $\delta (T)$ the number of non isomorphic indecomposable summands of $T$.…
Tilings of a surface of negative Euler characteristic by n-gons with n\ge 7 is a finite problem. One extreme of the finite problem is single tile tilings. We develop the algorithm for finding all the single tile tilings and present the…
We observe that the Laplacian of a random graph G on N vertices represents and explicitly solvable model in the limit of infinitely increasing N. Namely, we derive recurrent relations for the limiting averaged moments of the adjacency…
We prove that for any compact zero-dimensional metric space $X$ on which an infinite countable amenable group $G$ acts freely by homeomorphisms, there exists a dynamical quasitiling with good covering, continuity, F{\o}lner and dynamical…
For a fixed integer h>=1, let G be a tripartite graph with N vertices in each vertex class, N divisible by 6h, such that every vertex is adjacent to at least 2N/3+h-1 vertices in each of the other classes. We show that if N is sufficiently…
Cumulant mapping employs a statistical reconstruction of the whole by sampling its parts. The theory developed in this work formalises and extends ad hoc methods of `multi-fold' or `multi-dimensional' covariance mapping. Explicit formulae…
In this paper, we introduce tiled graphs as models of learning and maturing processes. We show how tiled graphs can combine graphs of learning spaces or antimatroids (partial hypercubes) and maturity models (total orders) to yield models of…
We show that every tiling of a convex set in the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ by equilateral triangles of mutually different sizes contains arbitrarily small tiles. The proof is purely elementary up to the discussion of one family of…
We consider asymtotics of a domino tiling model on a class of domains which we call rectangular Aztec diamonds. We prove the Law of Large Numbers for the corresponding height functions and provide explicit formulas for the limit. For a…
We consider a nonparametric Bayesian approach to estimation and testing for a multivariate monotone density. Instead of following the conventional Bayesian route of putting a prior distribution complying with the monotonicity restriction,…
We present a technique for the enumeration of all isotopically distinct ways of tiling a hyperbolic surface of finite genus, possibly nonorientable and with punctures and boundary. This provides a generalization of the enumeration of…
First, we consider order-$n$ ribbon tilings of an $M$-by-$N$ rectangle $R_{M,N}$ where $M$ and $N$ are much larger than $n$. We prove the existence of the growth rate $\gamma_n$ of the number of tilings and show that $\gamma_n \leq (n-1)…
In this note we show, roughly speaking, that if $\mathcal{B}$ is a Boolean algebra included in the natural way in the collection $\mathcal{D}/_\sim$ of all equivalence classes of natural density sets of the natural numbers, modulo null…
We introduce a new model of algorithmic tile self-assembly called size-dependent assembly. In previous models, supertiles are stable when the total strength of the bonds between any two halves exceeds some constant temperature. In this…
A particular, two-dimensional, tiling model, composed by the so called Wang tiles has been studied at finite temperature by Monte Carlo numerical simulations. In absence of any thermal bath the Wang tiles give the opportunity of building a…
We study whether an asymmetric limited-magnitude ball may tile $\mathbb{Z}^n$. This ball generalizes previously studied shapes: crosses, semi-crosses, and quasi-crosses. Such tilings act as perfect error-correcting codes in a channel which…
