Anderson and Putnam showed that the cohomology of a substitution tiling space may be computed by collaring tiles to obtain a substitution which "forces its border." One can then represent the tiling space as an inverse limit of an inflation…

We study homeomorphisms of tiling spaces with finite local complexity (FLC), of which suspensions of $d$-dimensional subshifts are an example, and orbit equivalence of tiling spaces with (possibly) infinite local complexity (ILC). In the…

Every sufficiently regular space of tilings of $\R^d$ has at least one pair of distinct tilings that are asymptotic under translation in all the directions of some open $(d-1)$-dimensional hemisphere. If the tiling space comes from a…

Generalizing work by Belk and Forrest, we develop almost expanding hyperedge replacement systems that build fractal topological spaces as quotients of edge shifts under certain ``gluing'' equivalent relations. We define ESS groups, which…

Let $G$ be a group and $\phi:H\to G$ be a contracting homomorphism from a subgroup $H<G$ of finite index. V.Nekrashevych [25] associated with the pair $(G,\phi)$ the limit dynamical system $(\lims,\si)$ and the limit $G$-space $\limGs$…

We compute the Cech cohomology with integer coefficients of one-dimensional tiling spaces arising from not just one, but several different substitutions, all acting on the same set of tiles. These calculations involve the introduction of a…

We develop a general framework of Euclidean patterns and pattern spaces of translational finite local complexity (FLC), analogues of translational tiling spaces. The notion of a self affine substitution of tilings is extended to both…

Going beyond the cohomological invariants attached to tiling spaces via inverse limit constructions, Clark and Hunton introduced shape group invariants, and showed these invariants in dimension one give new information. We show for…

Neretin and Segal independently defined a semigroup of annuli with boundary parametrizations, which is viewed as a complexification of the group of diffeomorphisms of the circle. By extending the parametrizations to quasisymmetries, we show…

This thesis establishes a generalised setting with which to unify the study of finite local complexity (FLC) patterns. The abstract notion of a "pattern" is introduced, which may be seen as an analogue of the space group of isometries…

We classify insulators by generalized symmetries that combine space-time transformations with quasimomentum translations. Our group-cohomological classification generalizes the nonsymmorphic space groups, which extend point groups by…

We relate Kellendonk and Putnam's pattern-equivariant (PE) cohomology to the inverse-limit structure of a tiling space. This gives a version of PE cohomology with integer coefficients, or with coefficients in any Abelian group. It also…

We establish direct isomorphisms between different versions of tiling cohomology. The first version is the direct limit of the cohomologies of the approximants in the Anderson-Putnam-G\"ahler complex, the second is the recently introduced…

We give a construction of a self-similar tiling of the plane with any prescribed expansion coefficient $\lambda\in\C$ (satisfying the necessary algebraic condition of being a complex Perron number). For any integer $m>1$ we show that there…

We explore the connections between automata, groups, limit spaces of self-similar actions, and tilings. In particular, we show how a group acting ``nicely'' on a tree gives rise to a self-covering of a topological groupoid, and how the…

We realize Kellendonk'?s C*-algebra of an aperiodic tiling as the tight C*-algebra of the inverse semigroup associated to the tiling, thus providing further evidence that the tight C*-algebra is a good candidate to be the natural…

We define the similarity boundary of a self-similar set and use it to analyze the properties of self-similar sets in the general setting of any complete metric space. The similarity boundary is an attempt at extending the concept of the…

We prove that Kellendonk's $C^*$-algebra of an aperiodic and repetitive tiling with finite local complexity is classifiable by the Elliott invariant. Our result follows from showing that tiling $C^*$-algebras are $\mathcal{Z}$-stable, and…

Through the glasses of didactic reduction: We consider a (periodic) tessellation $\Delta$ of either Euclidean or hyperbolic $n$-space $M$. By a piecewise isometric rearrangement of $\Delta$ we mean the process of cutting $M$ along corank-1…
