Non-periodic tilings with Tile(1, 1) using the substitution method, as presented by Smith et al. in [2] and [3], can be converted into non-periodic tilings with three types of pentagons. When arbitrary replacements are excluded, the…
The concept of star-duality is described for self-similar cut-and-project tilings in arbitrary dimensions. This generalises Thurston's concept of a Galois-dual tiling. The dual tilings of the Penrose tilings as well as the Ammann-Beenker…
We prove that fairly general spaces of tilings of R^d are fiber bundles over the torus T^d, with totally disconnected fiber. This was conjectured (in a weaker form) in [W3], and proved in certain cases. In fact, we show that each such space…
We study de Rham cohomology for various differential calculi on finite groups G up to order 8. These include the permutation group S_3, the dihedral group D_4 and the quaternion group Q. Poincare' duality holds in every case, and under some…
We compute an exact formula for the order of the class of the identity in the K_0 group of an infinite class of two-dimensional Kuntz-Crieger algebras.
General substitution rules for non-periodic rhomb tilings are derived. From the requirement that all substitution tiles consist of a discrete number of prototiles, it follows that a substitution tile with angle s*pi/n must be built out of…
We study tilings of polygons $R$ with arbitrary convex polygonal tiles. Such tilings come in continuous families obtained by moving tile edges parallel to themselves (keeping edge directions fixed). We study how the tile shapes and areas…
We identify a precise geometric relationship between: (i) certain natural pairs of irreducible reflection groups (``Coxeter pairs"); (ii) self-similar quasicrystalline patterns formed by superposing sets of 1D quasi-periodically-spaced…
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…
A new family of decagonal quasiperiodic tilings are constructed by the use of generalized point substitution processes, which is a new substitution formalism developed by the author [N. Fujita, Acta Cryst. A 65, 342 (2009)]. These tilings…
Two new Elnitsky tilings for Coxeter groups of type $\mathrm{B}$ are displayed as certain subtilings. Additionally, a new tiling for the non-crystallographic Coxeter group of type $\mathrm{H}_3$ is obtained, described as a…
Rhombus Penrose tilings are tilings of the plane by two decorated rhombi such that the decoration match at the junction between two tiles (like in a jigsaw puzzle). In dynamical terms, they form a tiling space of finite type. If we remove…
The periodic tiling conjecture (PTC) asserts, for a finitely generated Abelian group $G$ and a finite subset $F$ of $G$, that if there is a set $A$ that solves the tiling equation $\mathbb{1}_F * \mathbb{1}_A = 1$, there is also a periodic…
It is well known that if a finite set $A\subset\mathbb{Z}$ tiles the integers by translations, then the translation set must be periodic, so that the tiling is equivalent to a factorization $A\oplus B=\mathbb{Z}_M$ of a finite cyclic group.…
A submodule of a $\mathbb{Z}$-module determines a coloring of the module where each coset of the submodule is associated to a unique color. Given a submodule coloring of a $\mathbb{Z}$-module, the group formed by the symmetries of the…
Many examples of nonpositively curved closed manifolds arise as blow-ups of projective hyperplane arrangements. If the hyperplane arrangement is associated to a finite reflection group W, and the blow-up locus is W-invariant, then the…
We introduce a new family of nonperiodic tilings, based on a substitution rule that generalizes the pinwheel tiling of Conway and Radin. In each tiling the tiles are similar to a single triangular prototile. In a countable number of cases,…
Let $\tilde{G}$ be a finite group and $G$ a normal subgroup of $\tilde{G}$. In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for $\mathrm{Ind}_G^{\tilde{G}}M$ to be a support $\tau$-tilting $k\tilde{G}$-module for a $kG$-module…
In this paper, we study multiplicative structures on the K-theory of the core $A:=C^*(E)^{U(1)}$ of the C*-algebra $C^*(E)$ of a directed graph $E$. In the first part of the paper, we study embeddings $E\to E\times E$ that induce a…
For a germ $(X,0)$ of a normal complex analytic surface, let $E:=H^0({}^p_+IC_X\mathbb Z)_0$, where ${}^pIC_X\mathbb Z$ and ${}^p_+IC_X\mathbb Z$ denote the ordinary and dual middle-perversity intersection complexes with integral…
