Percolation on a one-dimensional lattice and fractals such as the Sierpinski gasket is typically considered to be trivial because they percolate only at full bond density. By dressing up such lattices with small-world bonds, a novel…
The well-known plastic number substitution gives rise to a ternary inflation tiling of the real line whose inflation factor is the smallest Pisot-Vijayaraghavan number. The corresponding dynamical system has pure point spectrum, and the…
Particle models with finitely many types of particles are considered, both on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ and on discrete point sets of finite local complexity. Such sets include many standard examples of aperiodic order such as model sets or certain…
The paper develops a method for discrete computational Fourier analysis of functions defined on quasicrystals and other almost periodic sets. A key point is to build the analysis around the emerging theory of quasicrystals and diffraction…
In some particular cases we give criteria for morphic sequences to be almost periodic (=uniformly recurrent). Namely, we deal with fixed points of non-erasing morphisms and with automatic sequences. In both cases a polynomial-time algorithm…
We introduce and study the notions of translation bounded tempered distributions, and autocorrelation for a tempered distrubution. We further introduce the spaces of weakly, strongly and null weakly almost periodic tempered distributions…
Gevrey 2 quasi-periodic cocycles with diophantine frequency, close to a constant, with values in classical Lie groups, are almost reducible in a weak sense. This is the analogue of Eliasson's almost reducibility theorem for analytic…
This paper is about almost reducibility of quasi-periodic cocycles with a diophantine frequency which are sufficiently close to a constant. Generalizing previous works by L.H.Eliasson, we show a strong version of almost reducibility for…
Based on Bohr's equivalence relation which was established for general Dirichlet series, in this paper we introduce a new equivalence relation on the space of almost periodic functions in the sense of Besicovitch,…
The paper studies different variants of almost periodicity notion. We introduce the class of eventually strongly almost periodic sequences where some suffix is strongly almost periodic (=uniformly recurrent). The class of almost periodic…
Almost periodic particle chains exhibit peculiar propagation properties that are not observed in perfectly periodic ones. Furthermore, since they inherently support non-negligible long-range interactions and radiation through the…
Bifurcations of classical orbits introduce divergences into semiclassical spectra which have to be smoothed with the help of uniform approximations. We develop a technique to extract individual energy levels from semiclassical spectra…
We develop a comprehensive theory of reflectionless canonical systems with an arbitrary Dirichlet-regular Widom spectrum with the Direct Cauchy Theorem property. This generalizes, to an infinite gap setting, the constructions of finite gap…
We approximate a chain recurrent dynamical system by periodic dynamical systems. This is similar to the well known Bohr theorem on approximation of almost periodic functions by periodic functions.
Diffraction methods are used to detect atomic order in solids. While uniquely ergodic systems with pure point diffraction have zero entropy, the relation between diffraction and entropy is not as straightforward in general. In particular,…
We present mathematical theory for understanding the transmission spectra of heterogeneous materials formed by generalised Fibonacci tilings. Our results, firstly, characterise super band gaps, which are spectral gaps that exist for any…
Mathematical diffraction theory is concerned with the diffraction image of a given structure and the corresponding inverse problem of structure determination. In recent years, the understanding of systems with continuous and mixed spectra…
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…
A brief review of the manifestations of classical chaos observed in atomic systems is presented. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of atomic spectra by periodic orbit-type theories. For diamagnetic non-hydrogenic Rydberg atoms,…
The acoustic properties of a porous sheet of medium resistivity backed by a rigid plate in which are embedded a periodic set of circular inclusions is investigated. Such a structure behaves like a multi-component diffraction gratings.…
