We formulate and prove a variational principle (in the sense of thermodynamics) for random domino tilings, or equivalently for the dimer model on a square grid. This principle states that a typical tiling of an arbitrary finite region can…
We study random domino tilings of a multiply-connected domain with a height function defined on the universal covering space of the domain. We prove a large deviation principle for the height function in two asymptotic regimes. The first…
We consider the dimer model in cylindrical domains $\Omega_\delta$ on square grids of mesh size $\delta$ with two Temperleyan boundary components of different colors. Assuming that the $\Omega_\delta$ approximate a cylindrical domain…
We consider domino tilings of $3$-dimensional cubiculated regions. A three-dimensional domino is a 2x2x1 rectangular cuboid. We are particularly interested in regions of the form $R_N = D \times [0,N]$ where $D$ is a fixed quadriculated…
In this paper we consider domino tilings of bounded regions in dimension $n \geq 4$. We define the twist of such a tiling, an elements of ${\mathbb{Z}}/(2)$, and prove it is invariant under flips, a simple local move in the space of…
We analyze asymptotic height function fluctuations in uniformly random domino tiling models on multiply connected Temperleyan domains. Starting from asymptotic formulas derived by Kenyon [arXiv:math-ph/9910002v1], we show that (1) the…
We perform numerical studies including Monte Carlo simulations of high rotational symmetry random tilings. For computational convenience, our tilings obey fixed boundary conditions in regular polygons. Such tilings are put in correspondence…
In this thesis, we consider domino tilings of three-dimensional regions, especially those of the form $\mathcal{D} \times [0,N]$. In particular, we investigate the connected components of the space of tilings of such regions by flips, the…
The number of domino tilings of a region with reflective symmetry across a line is combinatorially shown to depend on the number of domino tilings of particular subregions, modulo 4. This expands upon previous congruency results for domino…
We consider dimer models on graphs which are bipartite, periodic and satisfy a geometric condition called {\em isoradiality}, defined in \cite{Kenyon3}. We show that the scaling limit of the height function of any such dimer model is…
In this paper we investigate the height field of a dimer model/random domino tiling on the plane at a smooth-rough (i.e. gas-liquid) transition. We prove that the height field at this transition has two-point correlation functions which…
Given a bounded Riemann surface $M$ of finite topological type, we show the existence of a universal and conformally invariant scaling limit for the Temperleyan cycle-rooted spanning forest on any sequence of graphs which approximate $M$ in…
We consider random rectangles in $\mathbb{R}^2$ that are distributed according to a Poisson random measure, i.e., independently and uniformly scattered in the plane. The distributions of the length and the width of the rectangles are…
In this paper we consider uniformly random lozenge tilings of arbitrary domains approximating (after suitable normalization) a closed, simply-connected subset of $\mathbb{R}^2$ with piecewise smooth, simple boundary. We show that the local…
We consider asymtotics of a domino tiling model on a class of domains which we call rectangular Aztec diamonds. We prove the Law of Large Numbers for the corresponding height functions and provide explicit formulas for the limit. For a…
Domino tilings have been studied extensively for both their statistical properties and their dynamical properties. We construct a subshift of finite type using matching rules for several types of dominos. We combine the previous results…
Given a graph $G$ and collection of subgraphs $T$ (called tiles), we consider covering $G$ with copies of tiles in $T$ so that each vertex $v\in G$ is covered with a predetermined multiplicity. The multinomial tiling model is a natural…
We study hyperuniform properties for the square-triangle tilings. The tiling is generated by a local growth rule, where squares or triangles are iteratively attached to its boundary. The introduction of the probability $p$ in the growth…
This paper is concerned with the study of linear geometric rigidity of shallow thin domains under zero Dirichlet boundary conditions on the displacement field on the thin edge of the domain. A shallow thin domain is a thin domain that has…
In this paper, we introduce a generalization of a class of tilings which appear in the literature: the tilings over which a height function can be defined (for example, the famous tilings of polyominoes with dominoes). We show that many…
