This article is devoted to the study of classical and new results concerning equidistant sets, both from the topological and metric point of view. We start with a review of the most interesting known facts about these sets in the euclidean…
We define a new family of non-periodic tilings with square tiles that is mutually locally derivable with some family of tilings with isosceles right triangles. Both families are defined by simple local rules, and the proof of their…
The tail measure of a regularly varying stationary time series has been recently introduced. It is used in this contribution to reconsider certain properties of the tail process and establish new ones. A new formulation of the time change…
We introduce the abstract notion of a chain, which is a sequence of $n$ points in the plane, ordered by $x$-coordinates, so that the edge between any two consecutive points is unavoidable as far as triangulations are concerned. A general…
Incoherent exciton dynamics in one-dimensional perfect lattices with traps at sites arranged according to aperiodic deterministic sequences is studied. We focus our attention on Thue-Morse and Fibonacci systems as canonical examples of…
In recent years, attempts to generalize lattice gauge theories to model topological order have been carried out through the so called $2$-gauge theories. These have opened the door to interesting new models and new topological phases which…
The study of temporal networks is motivated by the simple and important observation that just as network structure can affect dynamics, so can structure in time. Just as network topology can teach us about the system in question, so can its…
What is the period of the Fibonacci sequence modulo a prime? The purpose of our brief expository paper is to illustrate an accessible, motivated treatment of this classical topic using only ideas from linear and abstract algebra (rather…
The golden ratio and Fibonacci numbers are found to occur in various aspects of nature. We discuss the occurrence of this ratio in an interesting physical problem concerning center of masses in two dimensions. The result is shown to be…
The Tribonacci sequence $\mathbb{T}$ is the fixed point of the substitution $\sigma(a,b,c)=(ab,ac,a)$. In this note, we get the explicit expressions of all squares, and then establish the tree structure of the positions of repeated squares…
This monograph introduces key concepts and problems in the new research area of Periodic Geometry and Topology for materials applications.Periodic structures such as solid crystalline materials or textiles were previously classified in…
Recurrence is a fundamental characteristic of dynamical systems with complicated behavior. Understanding the inner structure of recurrence is challenging, especially if the system has many degrees of freedom and is subject to noise. We…
We provide an affirmative answer for the question raised almost twenty years ago concerning the characterization of tilted artin algebras by the existence of a sincere finitely generated module which is not the middle of a short chain.
This is a chapter surveying the current state of our understanding of tilings with infinite local complexity. It is intended to appear in the volume {\em Directions in Aperiodic Order}, D. Lenz, J. Kellendonk, and J. Savienen, eds.
In this paper we study substitutions and some of their associated generating functions. This association takes aperiodicity to transcendence, and vice-versa. These generating functions have a recursive structure arising from the…
The list of properties of Fibonacci numbers F(n) (with multifaceted relevance in physics) is complemented by an empirical observation that in combination with the "next" family of the "delayed Fibonacci" numbers G(n) called, for…
One-dimensional quasiperiodic systems, such as the Harper model and the Fibonacci quasicrystal, have long been the focus of extensive theoretical and experimental research. Recently, the Harper model was found to be topologically…
In 2023, two striking, nearly simultaneous, mathematical discoveries have excited their respective communities, one by Greenfeld and Tao, the other (the Hat tile) by Smith, Myers, Kaplan and Goodman-Strauss, which can both be summed up as…
This article examines the tilings of a strip with equilateral triangles. The number of ways in which the lattices can be covered with a combination of tiles of the two types of triangles is related to Pell's numbers. Additionally, the…
The embedding of a given point set with non-crystallographic symmetry into higher-dimensional space is reviewed, with special emphasis on the Minkowski embedding known from number theory. This is a natural choice that does not require an a…
