The recently discovered "hat" aperiodic monotile mixes unreflected and reflected tiles in every tiling it admits, leaving open the question of whether a single shape can tile aperiodically using translations and rotations alone. We show…

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 introduce a new type of aperiodic hexagonal monotile; a prototile that admits infinitely many tilings of the plane, but any such tiling lacks any translational symmetry. Adding a copy of our monotile to a patch of tiles must satisfy two…

A plethora of unconventional localization phenomena and fractal features of linear spectrum observed in quasiperiodic structures have been accompanied by a long-standing quest for the geometrical elements and structures that permit tilings…

Mathematicians have been interested in non-periodic tilings of space for decades; however, it was the unexpected discovery of non-periodically ordered structures in intermetallic alloys which brought this subject into the limelight. These…

A longstanding open problem asks for an aperiodic monotile, also known as an "einstein": a shape that admits tilings of the plane, but never periodic tilings. We answer this problem for topological disk tiles by exhibiting a continuum of…

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 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…

In 2023, two striking, nearly simultaneous, mathematical discoveries have excited their respective communities, one by Greenfeld and Tao, the other (the Hat tile) by Smith, Myers, Kaplan and Goodman-Strauss, which can both be summed up as…

Aperiodic systems such as quasiperiodic systems exhibit unique properties different from periodic structures. In 2023, Smith et al. discovered a new aperiodic structure: a single-shaped tile that can only tile space aperiodically, known as…

We show that a single prototile can fill space uniformly but not admit a periodic tiling. A two-dimensional, hexagonal prototile with markings that enforce local matching rules is proven to be aperiodic by two independent methods. The…

Aperiodic (quasicrystalline) tilings, such as Penrose's tiling, can be built up from e.g. kites and darts, squares and equilateral triangles, rhombi or shield shaped tiles and can have a variety of different symmetries. However, almost all…

An algorithm is provided to tile the plane with the aperiodic monotile Tile(1,1) recently discovered by Smith et al. (2023). Their geometric construction guidelines are expanded into a numerical MATLAB algorithm. The intention is to remove…

In 2023, the quest for an aperiodic monotile was answered by the hat monotile. In this article, structures in this aperiodic tiling are discovered, which allow for a direct computation of the tiling, similar to well-known methods for the…

Quasicrystals are unique materials characterized by long-range order without periodicity. They are observed in systems such as metallic alloys, soft matter, and particle simulations. Unlike periodic crystals, which are invariant under…

We know that tilesets that can tile the plane always admit a quasi-periodic tiling [4, 8], yet they hold many uncomputable properties [3, 11, 21, 25]. The quasi-periodicity function is one way to measure the regularity of a quasi-periodic…

Exploring nonminimal-rank quasicrystals, which have symmetries that can be found in both periodic and aperiodic crystals, often provides new insight into the physical nature of aperiodic long-range order in models that are easier to treat.…

The Einstein tile is a novel type of non-periodic tile that can cover the plane without repeating itself. It has a simple shape that resembles a fedora. This research paper unveils the aperiodicity of the newly discovered Einstein tile…

Recently "the Hat" monotile was introduced into the family of aperiodic tilings and quasicrystals boasting physical properties lying at the boundary of ordered and disordered systems. Here we study the two-dimensional wave transport,…

Can the entire plane be paved with a single tile that forces aperiodicity? This is known as the ein Stein problem (in German, ein Stein means one tile). This paper presents a monotile that delivers aperiodic tiling by design. It is based on…
