The theory of magnetic symmetry in quasicrystals, described in a companion paper [cond-mat/0304669], is used to enumerate all 3-dimensional octagonal spin point groups and spin space-group types, and calculate the resulting selection rules…
To understand the electronic shell- and supershell-structure in large metal clusters we have performed self-consistent calculations in the homogeneous, spherical jellium model for a variety of different materials. A scaling analysis of the…
In this paper, a technique for constructing quasiperiodic structures is suggested, which allows one by the assigned matching to restore the atoms density distribution formula of a corresponding quasicrystal. The algorithm to restore the…
In two series of papers we construct quasi regular polyhedra and their duals which are similar to the Catalan solids. The group elements as well as the vertices of the polyhedra are represented in terms of quaternions. In the present paper…
Isogeometric Analysis generalizes classical finite element analysis and intends to integrate it with the field of Computer-Aided Design. A central problem in achieving this objective is the reconstruction of analysis-suitable models from…
It is shown that tiling in icosahedral quasicrystals can also be properly described by cyclic twinning at the unit cell level. The twinning operation is applied on the primitive prolate golden rhombohedra, which can be considered a result…
Surfaces in i-Al68Pd23Mn9 as observed with STM and LEED experiments show atomic terraces in a Fibonacci spacing. We analyze them in a bulk tiling model due to Elser which incorporates many experimental data. The model has dodecahedral…
We model the quasicrystal-related structure CaCd$_6$, a bcc packing of icosahedral clusters containing tetrahedra which undergo orientational orderings at T<100 K. We use general schemes to evaluate an effective Hamltonian for…
We establish the existence of `time quasicrystals', tilings of the time axis with two unit cells of different duration. These aperiodic tilings can be constructed as slices through regular tilings of a space spanned by two orthogonal time…
The present paper deals with the possibility of creation of the quantum computer in which the role of q-bits is played by quasi-particles. In such a computer, the elementary computation block should represent a cluster created on the basis…
We augment the `QUAsi-symmetric Stellarator Repository' (QUASR) to include vacuum field stellarators with quasihelical symmetry using a globalized optimization workflow. The database now has almost 370,000 quasisaxisymmetry and…
The purpose of this article is to demonstrate that non-crystallographic reflection groups can be used to build new solvable quantum particle systems. We explicitly construct a one-parametric family of solvable four-body systems on a line,…
Packing problems, which ask how to arrange a collection of objects in space to meet certain criteria, are important in a great many physical and biological systems, where geometrical arrangements at small scales control behaviour at larger…
Triangle strips have been widely used for efficient rendering. It is NP-complete to test whether a given triangulated model can be represented as a single triangle strip, so many heuristics have been proposed to partition models into few…
Numerical simulations are commonly used to understand the parameter dependence of given spatio-temporal phenomena. Sampling a multi-dimensional parameter space and running the respective simulations leads to an ensemble of a large number of…
Well-resolved galaxy clusters often show a large-scale quasi-spiral structure in deprojected density $\rho$ and temperature $T$ fields, delineated by a tangential discontinuity known as a cold front, superimposed on a universal radial…
The Apollonian circle packing, generated from three mutually-tangent circles in the plane, has inspired over the past half-century the study of other classes of space-filling packings, both in two and in higher dimensions. Recently,…
Multidimensional scaling visualizes dissimilarities among objects and reduces data dimensionality. While many methods address symmetric proximity data, asymmetric and especially three-way proximity data (capturing relationships across…
This paper introduces hierarchical quasi-clustering methods, a generalization of hierarchical clustering for asymmetric networks where the output structure preserves the asymmetry of the input data. We show that this output structure is…
Stationary subdivision schemes have been extensively studied and have numerous applications in CAGD and wavelet analysis. To have high-order smoothness of the scheme, it is usually inevitable to enlarge the support of the mask that is used,…
