A finite set of integers $A$ tiles the integers by translations if $\mathbb{Z}$ can be covered by pairwise disjoint translated copies of $A$. Restricting attention to one tiling period, we have $A\oplus B=\mathbb{Z}_M$ for some…
The periodic tiling conjecture asserts that if a region $\Sigma\subset \mathbb R^d$ tiles $\mathbb R^d$ by translations then it admits at least one fully periodic tiling. This conjecture is known to hold in $\mathbb R$, and recently it was…
Tilings of a surface of negative Euler characteristic by n-gons with n\ge 7 is a finite problem. We develop the algorithm for finding all the tilings for fixed number of tiles and present the calculation for tilings of surfaces of small…
This paper investigates lozenge tilings of non-convex hexagonal regions and more specifically the asymptotic fluctuations of the tilings within and near the strip formed by opposite cuts in the regions, when the size of the regions tend to…
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…
We study single-flip dynamics in sets of three-dimensional rhombus tilings with fixed polyhedral boundaries. This dynamics is likely to be slowed down by so-called ``cycles'': such structures arise when tilings are encoded via the…
Microstructured honeycomb materials may exhibit exotic, extreme and tailorable mechanical properties, suited for innovative technological applications in a variety of modern engineering fields. The paper is focused on analysing the…
In complex crystals close to melting or at finite temperatures, different types of defects are ubiquitous and their role becomes relevant in the mechanical response of these solids. Conventional elasticity theory fails to provide a…
We investigate the effects of stealthy hyperuniform bond distributions on the electronic and magnetic properties of the Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice. Hyperuniform structures, distinct from random and quasiperiodic ones, have…
A locally finite face-to-face tiling of euclidean d-space by convex polytopes is called combinatorially multihedral if its combinatorial automorphism group has only finitely many orbits on the tiles. The paper describes a local…
We derive a reduced quasi-one-dimensional theory of geometrically frustrated elastic ribbons. Expressed in terms of geometric properties alone, it applies to ribbons over a wide range of scales, allowing the study of their elastic…
Rapid advances in additive manufacturing over the past decade have kindled widespread interest in the rational design of metamaterials with unique properties. However, many applications require multi-physics metamaterials, where multiple…
We study fully three-dimensional droplets that slide down an incline by employing a thin-film equation that accounts for capillarity, wettability, and a lateral driving force in small-gradient (or long-wave) approximation. In particular, we…
This paper studies tilings related to the beta-transformation when beta is a Pisot number (that is not supposed to be a unit). Then it applies the obtained results to study the set of rational numbers having a purely periodic…
A recent "hidden symmetry" conjecture of B. Gin-ge Chen et al is resolved, concerning the dimension of the mechanical modes of a generic $2$-periodic triangulated surface $O$ in $R^3$ whose structure graph corresponds to a triangular tiling…
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…
We provide a resolution of the Heesch problem for homogeneous (also known as semi-regular) tilings, and as a corollary, for tilings by convex monotiles in the hyperbolic plane. We also provide the first known example of weakly aperiodic…
In the present paper we study two-dimensional maximal surfaces with harmonic level-sets. As a corollary we obtain a new class of one-periodic maximal surfaces.
We determine the asymptotic behavior of the solutions to the linear elastodynamic equations in a stratified medium comprising an alternation of possibly very stiff layers with much softer ones, when the thickness of the layers tends to…
We analyze response of a macromolecule near to a substrate; the substrate is tiled in the sequential and specific manner so that repeat units of the macromolecule may have different response on its adsorption in different directions onto…
