A classic result of Conway and Coxeter on frieze patterns has been generalized to a bijection between $p$-angulations of regular polygons and frieze patterns of type $\Lambda_p$. One of the features of Conway-Coxeter theory is a…

We study self-similar attractors in the space $\mathbb{R}^d$, i.e., self-similar compact sets defined by several affine operators with the same linear part. The special case of attractors when the matrix $M$ of the linear part of affine…

We consider finite sets $A\subset\mathbb{Z}$ tiles the integers by translations. By periodicity, any such tiling is equivalent to a factorization $A\oplus B=\mathbb{Z}_M$ of a finite cyclic group. Building on por previous work, we prove…

We describe a method to classify crystallographic tilings of the Euclidean and hyperbolic planes by tiles whose stabiliser group contains translation isometries or whose topology is not that of a closed disk. We tackle this problem from two…

The study of tilings is a major problem in many mathematical instances, which is studied in two main different approaches: when considering the existence (or obstructions to the existence) of a tiling with a given tile and the other…

We introduce and study a three-folded linear operator depending on three parameters that has associated a triangular number tilling of the plane. As a result the set of all triples of integers is decomposed in classes of equivalence…

The infinite friezes of positive integers were introduced by Tschabold as a variation of the classical Conway-Coxeter frieze patterns. These infinite friezes were further shown be to realizable via triangulations of the infinite strip by…

In the perfect tiling problem, we aim to cover the vertices of a hypergraph~$G$ with pairwise vertex-disjoint copies of a hypergraph $F$. There are three essentially necessary conditions for such a perfect tiling, which correspond to…

A class of good integers has been introduced by P. Moree in $1997$ together with the characterization of good odd integers. Such integers have shown to have nice number theoretical properties and wide applications. In this paper, a complete…

We count tilings of a rectangle of integer sides m-1 and n-1 by a special set of tiles. The result is obtained fron the study of the kernel of the adjacency matrix of an n x n rectangular graph of Z x Z.

\noindent The algebraic characterization of classes of locally isomorphic aperiodic tilings, being examples of quantum spaces, is conducted for a certain type of tilings in a manner proposed by A. Connes. These $2$-dimensional tilings are…

The goal of the present paper is to push forward the frontiers of computations on Farrell-Tate cohomology for arithmetic groups. The conjugacy classification of cyclic subgroups is reduced to the classification of modules of group rings…

We construct a unilateral lattice tiling of $\mathbb{R}^n$ into hypercubes of two differnet side lengths $p$ or $q$. This generalizes the Pythagorean tiling in $\mathbb{R}^2$. We also show that this tiling is unique up to symmetries, which…

Square-triangle-rhombus ($\mathcal{STR}$) tilings are encountered in various self-organized multi-component systems. They exhibit a rich structural diversity, encompassing both periodic tilings and long-range ordered quasicrystals,…

A set is said to tile the integers if and only if the integers can be written as a disjoint union of translates of that set. We consider the problem of finding necessary and sufficient conditions for a finite set to tile the integers. For…

Tilings of the plane resemble the simplicial and other complexes from algebraic topology, but have not been studied from this perspective. We construct finite categories corresponding to polygons with labeled directed edges, and introduce…

The Turing degree of a real measures the computational difficulty of producing its binary expansion. Since Turing degrees are tailsets, it follows from Kolmogorov's 0-1 law that for any property which may or may not be satisfied by any…

Trellises are crucial graphical representations of codes. While conventional trellises are well understood, the general theory of (tail-biting) trellises is still under development. Iterative decoding concretely motivates such theory. In…

Frieze patterns have been introduced by Coxeter in the 1970's and have recently attracted renewed interest due to their close connection with Fomin-Zelevinsky's cluster algebras. Frieze patterns can be interpreted as assignments of values…
