We study multiple tilings of 3-dimensional Euclidean space by a convex body. In a multiple tiling, a convex body $P$ is translated with a discrete multiset $\Lambda$ in such a way that each point of the space gets covered exactly $k$ times,…
In this second paper, we study the case of substitution tilings of R^d. The substitution on tiles induces substitutions on the faces of the tiles of all dimensions j=0, ..., d-1. We reconstruct the tiling's equivalence relation in a purely…
We show how to determine if a given simple rectilinear polygon can be tiled with rectangles, each having an integer side.
We consider tilings $(\mathcal{Q},\Phi)$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ where $\mathcal{Q}$ is the $d$-dimensional unit cube and the set of translations $\Phi$ is constrained to lie in a pre-determined lattice $A \mathbb{Z}^d$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We…
The twistor construction for Riemannian manifolds is extended to the case of manifolds endowed with generalized metrics (in the sense of generalized geometry \`a la Hitchin). The generalized twistor space associated to such a manifold is…
A tiling of the unit square is an MTP tiling if the smallest tile can tile all the other tiles. We look at the function $f(n)=\max \sum s_i$, where $s_i$ is the side length of the $i$th tile and the sum is taken over all MTP tilings with…
We give a short proof of the fact that there are no measurable subsets of Euclidean space (in dimension d > 2), which, no matter how translated and rotated, always contain exactly one integer lattice point. In dimension d=2 (the original…
It is well known that the moduli space of flat connections on a trivial principal bundle MxG, where G is a connected Lie group, is isomorphic to the representation variety Hom(\pi_1(M), G)/G. For a tiling T, viewed as a marked copy of R^d,…
Suppose $f\in L^1(\mathbb{R}^d)$, $\Lambda\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is a finite union of translated lattices such that $f+\Lambda$ tiles with a weight. We prove that there exists a lattice $L\subset{\mathbb{R}}^d$ such that $f+L$ also tiles,…
We introduce a class of orders on $P^d$ called Geigle-Lenzing orders and show that they have tilting bundles. Moreover we show that their module categories are equivalent to the categories of coherent sheaves on Geigle-Lenzing spaces…
We show that every tiling of a convex set in the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ by equilateral triangles of mutually different sizes contains arbitrarily small tiles. The proof is purely elementary up to the discussion of one family of…
We study how the notion of tangent space can be extended from smooth manifolds to diffeological spaces, which are generalizations of smooth manifolds that include singular spaces and infinite-dimensional spaces. We focus on two definitions.…
We consider a class of cut-and-project sets $\Lambda = \Lambda_F \times \zahl$ in the plane. Let $L=\Lambda+w\real$, $w\in\real^2$, be a countable union of parallel lines. Then either (1) $L$ is a discrete family of lines, (2) $L$ is a…
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 classify edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent pentagons with the edge combination $a^4b$ and with any irrational angle in degree: they are three $1$-parameter families of pentagonal subdivisions of the Platonic solids, with…
We propose a formalism for tilings with infinite local complexity (ILC), and especially fusion tilings with ILC. We allow an infinite variety of tile types but require that the space of possible tile types be compact. Examples include…
In this article we study covering spaces of symplectic toric orbifolds and symplectic toric orbifold bundles. In particular, we show that all symplectic toric orbifold coverings are quotients of some symplectic toric orbifold by a finite…
We exhibit a subset of a finite Abelian group, which tiles the group by translation, and such that its tiling complements do not have a common spectrum (orthogonal basis for their $L^2$ space consisting of group characters). This disproves…
This paper defines the Arrwwid number of a recursive tiling (or space-filling curve) as the smallest number w such that any ball Q can be covered by w tiles (or curve sections) with total volume O(vol(Q)). Recursive tilings and…
Recently, Greenfeld and Tao disprove the conjecture that translational tilings of a single tile can always be periodic [Ann. Math. 200(2024), 301-363]. In another paper [to appear in J. Eur. Math. Soc.], they also show that if the dimension…
