We give a leisurely introduction into mathematical diffraction theory with a focus on pure point diffraction. In particular, we discuss various characterisations of pure point diffraction and common models arising from cut and project…
Modulated crystals and quasicrystals can simultaneously be described as modulated quasicrystals, a class of point sets introduced by de Bruijn in 1987. With appropriate modulation functions, modulated quasicrystals themselves constitute a…
Diffraction methods are at the heart of structure determination of solids. While Bragg-like scattering (pure point diffraction) is a characteristic feature of crystals and quasicrystals, it is not straightforward to interpret continuous…
A discrete set in the Euclidian space is almost periodic, if the measure with the unite masses at points of the set is almost periodic in the weak sense. We prove the following result: if A is a discrete almost periodic set and the set A-A…
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…
Some exact relations for the spectral density $\rho(\lambda)$ of the Euclidean Dirac operator in $QCD$ are derived. They follow directly from the chiral symmetry of the $QCD$ lagrangian with massless quarks. New results are obtained both in…
A regular sampling theory in a multiply generated unitary invariant subspace of a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is proposed. This subspace is associated to a unitary representation of a countable discrete abelian group $G$ on…
We characterize equicontinuous Delone dynamical systems as those coming from Delone sets with strongly almost periodic Dirac combs. Within the class of systems with nite local complexity the only equicontinuous systems are then shown to be…
We discover a pair of stable 3D Dirac points, 3D photonic analog of graphene, in all-dielectric photonic crystals using structures commensurate with nano-fabrication for visible-frequency photonic applications. The Dirac points carry…
Starting from the classical results of Shubnikov and Zamorzayev, computer models of shapes are implemented, which allow to visualize the action of discrete subgroups of continuous topological groups. The action is visualize by performing…
We consider certain point patterns of an Euclidean space and calculate the Ellis enveloping semigroup of their associated dynamical systems. The algebraic structure and the topology of the Ellis semigroup, as well as its action on the…
Discrete Euclidian Spaces (DESs) are the starting point in the study of the major fields of the Isodimensional Discrete Mathematics (IDM). The isodimensional analysis is not an exception, being particularly interesting and fruitful the…
We study close-packed dimers on the quasiperiodic Ammann-Beenker (AB) graph, that was recently shown to have the unusual feature that hard-core dimer constraints are exactly reproduced at successive discrete length scales. This observation…
The paper investigates how correlations can completely specify a uniformly discrete point process. The setting is that of uniformly discrete point sets in real space for which the corresponding dynamical hull is ergodic. The first result is…
We establish a regular sampling theory in the range of the analysis operator of a continuous frame having a unitary structure. The unitary structure is related with a unitary representation of a locally compact abelian group on a separable…
We study uniform and non-uniform model sets in arbitrary locally compact second countable (lcsc) groups, which provide a natural generalization of uniform model sets in locally compact abelian groups as defined by Meyer and used as…
This paper provides an explanation of the key effects behind the deflection of ultra-relativistic electron beams by means of oriented quasi-mosaic Bent Crystals (qmBC). It is demonstrated that accounting for specific geometry of the qmBC…
Delaunay triangulations of a point set in the Euclidean plane are ubiquitous in a number of computational sciences, including computational geometry. Delaunay triangulations are not well defined as soon as 4 or more points are concyclic but…
For a certain class of discrete metric spaces, we provide a formula for the density of states. This formula involves Dixmier traces and is proven using recent advances in operator theory. Various examples are given of metric spaces for…
We analyze the general problem of determining optimally dense packings, in a Euclidean or hyperbolic space, of congruent copies of some fixed finite set of bodies. We are strongly guided by examples of aperiodic tilings in Euclidean space…
