We present a single, connected tile which can tile the plane but only non-periodically. The tile is hexagonal with edge markings, which impose simple rules as to how adjacent tiles are allowed to meet across edges. The first of these rules…
We extend our earlier work on anomalies in the space of coupling constants to four-dimensional gauge theories. Pure Yang-Mills theory (without matter) with a simple and simply connected gauge group has a mixed anomaly between its one-form…
We propose a new simple construction of an aperiodic tile set based on self-referential (fixed point) argument. People often say about some discovery that it appeared "ahead of time", meaning that it could be fully understood only in the…
We prove existence and uniqueness of foliations by stable spheres with constant mean curvature for 3-manifolds which are asymptotic to Anti-de Sitter-Schwarzschild metrics with positive mass. These metrics arise naturally as spacelike…
We consider hypoelliptic symbols over a very regular Lie group and discuss monodromy for a spectral stratification using results of Nilsson and B\"acklund.
We apply Stone duality and model theory to study the structure theory of free pro-aperiodic monoids. Stone duality implies that elements of the free pro-aperiodic monoid may be viewed as elementary equivalence classes of pseudofinite words.…
The purpose of this short note is to demonstrate how some techniques from additive combinatorics recently developed by Peluse and Peluse-Prendiville can be applied to give an alternative proof for a trilinear smoothing inequality originally…
This paper reviews work, largely due to W. Simon and the author, on multipole theory of static spacetimes. The main purpose is to make this work, which lies at the interface of potential theory, conformal geometry and general relativity,…
We completely classify all varieties of aperiodic monoids with central idempotents whose subvariety lattice is distributive.
In a previous paper, the authors showed that metrics which are asymptotic to Anti-de Sitter-Schwarzschild metrics with positive mass admit a unique foliation by stable spheres with constant mean curvature. In this paper we extend that…
We provide an alternative proof that Crosscaps are diffeomorphically stable.
Aperiodic tilings are non-periodic tilings defined by local rules. They are widely used to model quasicrystals, and a central question is to understand which of the non-periodic tilings are actually aperiodic. Among tilings, those by rhombi…
We give an explicit algorithm to construct aperiodic tile sets based on Sturmian words of quadratic slopes. The method works for any quadratic irrational slope, and we can produce infinitely many aperiodic tile sets whose underlying scaling…
A variety of algebras is called limit if it is non-finitely based but all its proper subvarieties are finitely based. A monoid is aperiodic if all its subgroups are trivial. We classify all limit varieties of aperiodic monoids with…
This paper is addressed to logicians not familiar with category theory. It gives a new proof of coherence for symmetric monoidal closed categories, proven by Kelly and Mac Lane in early 1970s. We find this result of great importance for…
Continued fractions are used to give an alternate proof of $e^{x/y}$ is irrational.
The trilobite and crab are among the very simplest aperiodic sets of tiles known: two tiles in eight translation classes. Yet the proof that they are an aperiodic set is surprisingly complex.
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 Spectre is a family of recently discovered aperiodic monotiles that tile the plane only in non-periodic ways, and novel physical phenomena have been predicted for planar systems made of aperiodic monotiles. It is shown that point…
We close the problem of the existence of period annuli in planar piecewise linear differential systems with a straight line of nonsmoothness. In fact, a characterization for the existence of such objects is provided by means of a few basic…
