We present here an elementary construction of an aperiodic tile set. Although there already exist dozens of examples of aperiodic tile sets we believe this construction introduces an approach that is different enough to be interesting and…
The Kari-Culik tilings are formed from a set of 13 Wang tiles that tile the plane only aperiodically. They are the smallest known set of Wang tiles to do so and are not as well understood as other examples of aperiodic Wang tiles. We show…
The trilobite and crab are among the very simplest aperiodic sets of tiles known: two tiles in eight translation classes. Yet the proof that they are an aperiodic set is surprisingly complex.
We present a new aperiodic tileset containing 11 Wang tiles on 4 colors, and we show that this tileset is minimal, in the sense that no Wang set with either fewer than 11 tiles or fewer than 4 colors is aperiodic. This gives a definitive…
Given a random distribution of impurities on a periodic crystal, an equivalent uniquely ergodic tiling space is built, made of aperiodic, repetitive tilings with finite local complexity, and with configurational entropy close to the entropy…
How many different tiles are needed at the minimum to create aperiodicity? Several tilings made of two tiles were discovered, the first one being by Penrose in the seventies. Since then, scientists discovered other aperiodic tilings made of…
We study tilings of the plane that combine strong properties of different nature: combinatorial and algorithmic. We prove existence of a tile set that accepts only quasiperiodic and non-recursive tilings. Our construction is based on the…
An aperiodic tile set was first constructed by R.Berger while proving the undecidability of the domino problem. It turned out that aperiodic tile sets appear in many topics ranging from logic (the Entscheidungsproblem) to physics…
Aperiodic tiling --- a form of complex global geometric structure arising through locally checkable, constant-time matching rules --- has long been closely tied to a wide range of physical, information-theoretic, and foundational…
We define a Wang tile set $\mathcal{U}$ of cardinality 19 and show that the set $\Omega_\mathcal{U}$ of all valid Wang tilings $\mathbb{Z}^2\to\mathcal{U}$ is self-similar, aperiodic and is a minimal subshift of…
Icosahedral tilings, although non-periodic, are known to be characterized by their configurations of some finite size. This characterization has also been expressed in terms of a simple alternation condition. We provide an alternative proof…
Aperiodic tiling is a well-know area of research. First developed by mathematicians for the mathematical challenge they represent and the beauty of their resulting patterns, they became a growing field of interest when their practical use…
A new kind of aperiodic tiling is introduced. It is shown to underlie a structure obtained as a superposition of waves with incommensurate periods. Its connections to other other tilings and quasicrystals are discussed.
We show that translational tiling problems in a quotient of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ can be effectively reduced or ``simulated'' by translational tiling problems in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. In particular, for any $d \in \mathbb{N}$, $k < d$ and…
We prove that for any infinite countable amenable group $G$, any $\epsilon > 0$ and any finite subset $K\subset G$, there exists a tiling (partition of $G$ into finite "tiles" using only finitely many "shapes"), where all the tiles are $(K;…
We propose a new simple construction of an aperiodic tile set based on self-referential (fixed point) argument. People often say about some discovery that it appeared "ahead of time", meaning that it could be fully understood only in the…
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…
A square tiling of the unit square is said to have the minimal tile property if the smallest tile can tile all the other tiles. We show that in such a tiling, the smallest tile cannot be too small.
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…
