The periodic tiling conjecture (PTC) asserts, for a finitely generated Abelian group $G$ and a finite subset $F$ of $G$, that if there is a set $A$ that solves the tiling equation $\mathbb{1}_F * \mathbb{1}_A = 1$, there is also a periodic…
In this paper, we provide a geometric characterization of tiles in the finite abelian groups \( \mathbb{Z}_{p^n} \times \mathbb{Z}_q \) and \( \mathbb{Z}_{p^n} \times \mathbb{Z}_p \) using the concept of a \( p \)-homogeneous tree, which…
We consider "cubes" in products of finite cyclic groups and we study their tiling and spectral properties. (A set in a finite group is called a tile if some of its translates form a partition of the group and is called spectral if it admits…
We prove that any finite set $F\subset {\mathbb{Z}^2}$ that tiles ${\mathbb{Z}^2}$ by translations also admits a periodic tiling. As a consequence, the problem whether a given finite set $F$ tiles ${\mathbb{Z}^2}$ is decidable.
We study abstract finite groups with the property, called property $\hat{s}$, that all of their subrepresentations have submultiplicative spectra. Such groups are necessarily nilpotent and we focus on $p$-groups. $p$-groups with property…
The periodic tiling conjecture asserts that if a region $\Sigma\subset \mathbb R^d$ tiles $\mathbb R^d$ by translations then it admits at least one fully periodic tiling. This conjecture is known to hold in $\mathbb R$, and recently it was…
We obtain structural results on translational tilings of periodic functions in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ by finite tiles. In particular, we show that any level one tiling of a periodic set in $\mathbb{Z}^2$ must be weakly periodic (the disjoint union…
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the properties of spectral and tiling subsets of cyclic groups, with an eye towards the spectral set conjecture in one dimension, which states that a bounded measurable subset of $\mathbb{R}$…
We discuss the relation of tiling, weak tiling and spectral sets in finite abelian groups. In particular, in elementary $p$-groups $(\mathbb{Z}_p)^d$, we introduce an averaging procedure that leads to a natural object of study: a 4-tuple of…
It is known that a group shift on a polycyclic group is necessarily of finite type. We show that, for trivial reasons, if a group does not satisfy the maximal condition on subgroups, then it admits non-SFT abelian group shifts. In…
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…
We study implications of expansiveness and pointwise periodicity for certain groups and semigroups of transformations. Among other things we prove that every pointwise periodic finitely generated group of cellular automata is necessarily…
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…
This survey describes some recent work, by the authors and others, on the existence of algebraic fibrations of group extensions, as well as the finiteness properties of their algebraic fibers, in the realm of both abstract and pro-$p$…
The periodic tiling conjecture asserts that any finite subset of a lattice $\mathbb{Z^d}$ which tiles that lattice by translations, in fact tiles periodically. We announce here a disproof of this conjecture for sufficiently large $d$, which…
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…
Let $G$ be a finite group. We will say that $M$ and $S$ form a \textsl{complete splitting} (\textsl{splitting}) of $G$ if every element (nonzero element) $g$ of $G$ has a unique representation of the form $g=ms$ with $m\in M$ and $s\in S$,…
For a (non-unit) Pisot number $\beta$, several collections of tiles are associated with $\beta$-numeration. This includes an aperiodic and a periodic one made of Rauzy fractals, a periodic one induced by the natural extension of the…
We prove that acylindrically hyperbolic groups are monotileable. That is, every finite subset of the group is contained in a finite tile. This provides many new examples of monotileable groups, and progress on the question of whether every…
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…
