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…

In a previous paper by the first two authors, a tube formula for fractal sprays was obtained which also applies to a certain class of self-similar fractals. The proof of this formula uses distributional techniques and requires fairly strong…

Suppose that the set ${\mathcal{T}}= \{T_1, T_2,...,T_q \} $ of real $n\times n$ matrices has joint spectral radius less than $1$. Then for any digit set $ D= \{d_1, \cdots, d_q\} \subset {\Bbb R}^n$, there exists a unique nonempty compact…

Analysis on fractals is a growing field, with hints of potential for widespread applicability across all of STEM. One of the most heavily researched type of fractals are the nested fractals, fractal shapes defined by virtue of being made of…

A compact set $E\subset {\Bbb R}^d$ is said to be arithmetically thick if there exists a positive integer $n$ so that the $n$-fold arithmetic sum of $E$ has non-empty interior. We prove the arithmetic thickness of $E$, if $E$ is uniformly…

We study the properties of tilting modules in the context of properly stratified algebras. In particular, we answer the question when the Ringel dual of a properly stratified algebra is properly stratified itself, and show that the class of…

We investigate a fundamental question regarding a benchmark class of shapes in one of the simplest, yet most widely utilized abstract models of algorithmic tile self-assembly. Specifically, we study the directed tile complexity of a $k…

We consider the self-assembly of fractals in one of the most well-studied models of tile based self-assembling systems known as the Two-handed Tile Assembly Model (2HAM). In particular, we focus our attention on a class of fractals called…

In this paper, we work in a 2D version of the probabilistic variant of Winfree's abstract Tile Assembly Model defined by Chandran, Gopalkrishnan and Reif (SICOMP 2012) in which attaching tiles are sampled uniformly with replacement. First,…

We introduce a fractal version of the pinwheel substitution tiling. There are thirteen basic prototiles, all of which have fractal boundaries. These tiles, along with their reflections and rotations, create a tiling space which is mutually…

In this paper we study the category of graded modules for the current algebra associated to $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. The category enjoys many nice properties, including a tilting theory which was established in previous work of the authors. We…

Accurate segmentation of long and thin tubular structures is required in a wide variety of areas such as biology, medicine, and remote sensing. The complex topology and geometry of such structures often pose significant technical…

An iterated function system $\Phi$ consisting of contractive similarity mappings has a unique attractor $F \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ which is invariant under the action of the system, as was shown by Hutchinson [Hut]. This paper shows how the…

This paper gives a (polynomial time) algorithm to decide whether a given Discrete Self-Similar Fractal Shape can be assembled in the aTAM model.In the positive case, the construction relies on a Self-Assembling System in the aTAM which…

We establish a multidimensional fractal transference principle for digit-restricted sets associated with subsets of $\mathbb{N}^d$, extending the one-dimensional framework of Nakajima--Takahasi, Adv. Math. (2025). We develop general…

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…

Recently, the first author has extended the definition of the zeta function associated with fractal strings to arbitrary bounded subsets $A$ of the $N$-dimensional Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^N$, for any integer $N\ge1$. It is defined by…

Properties of the set $T_s$ of "particularly non-normal numbers" of the unit interval are studied in details ($T_s$ consists of real numbers $x$, some of whose s-adic digits have the asymptotic frequencies in the nonterminating $s-$ adic…

We study two-digit attractors (2-attractors) in $\mathbb{R}^d$ which are self-affine compact sets defined by two contraction affine mappings with the same linear part. They are widely studied in the literature under various names:…

In this work, we study the number of finite tiles $A\subset\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ of size $\alpha$ that translationally tile a finite $C\subset\mathbb{Z}^{d}$. We consider two tiles $A$ and $A'$ to be congruent if and only if one can be…
