Systems as diverse as mechanical structures assembled from elastic components, and photonic metamaterials enjoy a common geometrical feature: a sublattice symmetry. This property realizes a chiral symmetry first introduced to characterize a…
We study homeomorphisms of tiling spaces with finite local complexity (FLC), of which suspensions of $d$-dimensional subshifts are an example, and orbit equivalence of tiling spaces with (possibly) infinite local complexity (ILC). In the…
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…
We present a single, connected tile which can tile the plane but only non-periodically. The tile is hexagonal with edge markings, which impose simple rules as to how adjacent tiles are allowed to meet across edges. The first of these rules…
We construct algorithms and topological invariants that allow us to distinguish the topological type of a surface, as well as functions and vector fields for their topological equivalence. In the first part we discus the main structures…
It is proved that whenever two aperiodic repetitive tilings with finite local complexity have homeomorphic tiling spaces, their associated complexity functions are asymptotically equivalent in a certain sense (which implies, if the…
In the article "Construction of the continuous hull for the combinatorics of a regular pentagonal tiling of the plane" we constructed a compact topological space for the combinatorics of "A regular pentagonal tiling of the plane", which we…
To a given tiling a non commutative space and the corresponding C*-algebra are constructed. This includes the definition of a topology on the groupoid induced by translations of the tiling. The algebra is also the algebra of observables for…
The article is devoted to a structure of topological spaces related with topological quasigroups. Regular and complete spaces over topological quasigroups are studied. Separations and embeddings are also investigated for them. Their…
We study the topological dynamics by iterations of a piecewise continuous, non linear and locally contractive map in a real finite dimensional compact ball. We consider those maps satisfying the "separation property": different continuity…
A tiling with infinite rotational symmetry, such as the Conway-Radin Pinwheel Tiling, gives rise to a topological dynamical system to which an \'etale equivalence relation is associated. A groupoid C*-algebra for a tiling is produced and a…
Inspired by the concept of hyperconvexity and its relation to curvature, we translate geometric properties of a metric space encoded by the curvature inequalities into the persistent homology induced by the \v{C}ech filtration of that…
We describe a method to classify crystallographic tilings of the Euclidean and hyperbolic planes by tiles whose stabiliser group contains translation isometries or whose topology is not that of a closed disk. We tackle this problem from two…
We give a homological construction of aperiodic tiles for certain open Riemannian surfaces admitting actions of Grigorchuk groups of intermediate growth.
This paper investigates spaces equipped with a family of metric-like functions satisfying certain axioms. These functions provide a unified framework for defining topology, uniformity, and diffeology. The framework is based on a family of…
We study the topology and dynamics of subshifts and tiling spaces associated to non-primitive substitutions in one dimension. We identify a property of a substitution, which we call tameness, in the presence of which most of the possible…
Differentials on Riemann surfaces correspond to translation surfaces with conical singularities, and affine transformations acting on them preserve the orders of these singularities. This viewpoint allows the moduli spaces of differentials…
We analyze and compare different dynamical systems and groupoids which can be obtained from projection point patterns. We define the cohomology of a point pattern as the cocycle cohomology of the pattern groupoid. We describe this…
We establish a structure theorem for the family of Ammann A2 tilings of the plane. Using that theorem we show that every Ammann A2 tiling is self-similar in the sense of [B. Solomyak, Nonperiodicity implies unique composition for…
In this paper, we study the structure of the set of tilings produced by any given tile-set. For better understanding this structure, we address the set of finite patterns that each tiling contains. This set of patterns can be analyzed in…
