An algorithm for determining crystal structures from diffraction data is described which does not rely on the usual Fourier-space formulations of atomicity. The new algorithm implements atomicity constraints in real-space, as well as…
The observation recently of 12-fold quasicrystals in polymers, nanoparticle mixture and 12-fold and 18-fold quasicrystals in colloidal solutions are important events for the study of quasicrystals. To describe the mechanical behaviour we…
Mixed atomistic and continuum methods offer the possibility of carrying out simulations of material properties at both larger length scales and longer times than direct atomistic calculations. The quasi-continuum method links atomistic and…
In this paper, we characterize quasicrystalline interacting topological phases of matter i.e., phases protected by some quasicrystalline structure. We show that the elasticity theory of quasicrystals, which accounts for both "phonon" and…
This work is devoted to the study of the symmetries of (quasi)periodic architectured materials. For this purpose, the weaker symmetry criterion of indistinguishability is used. It relies on a statistical description of the mesostructure and…
We give a simple computational approach to mathematical quasicrystals, combining cut-and-project methods with self-similarity. Starting with a Pisot unit $\beta$ and an iterated function system $g_k(z)=\beta z +z_k, \ k=1,...,m$ in a…
Linearly repetitive cut and project sets are mathematical models for perfectly ordered quasicrystals. In a previous paper we presented a characterization of linearly repetitive cut and project sets. In this paper we extend the classical…
Quasicrystals can be described as projections of sections of higher dimensional periodic lattices into real space. The image of the lattice points in the projected out dimensions, called the perpendicular space, carries valuable information…
Aperiodic crystals constitute a fascinating class of materials that includes incommensurate (IC) modulated structures and quasicrystals (QCs). Although these two categories share a common foundation in the concept of superspace, the…
We describe the structure of quasiflats in two-dimensio\-nal Artin groups. We rely on the notion of metric systolicity developed in our previous work. Using this weak form of non-positive curvature and analyzing in details the combinatorics…
In this work, we study the nucleation of quasicrystals from liquid or periodic crystals by developing an efficient order-order phase transition algorithm, namely the nullspace-preserving saddle search method. Specifically, we focus on…
In solid state systems, group representation theory is powerful in characterizing the behavior of quasiparticles, notably the energy degeneracy. While conventional group theory is effective in answering yes-or-no questions related to…
We introduce an approach to computing the free energy of quasicrystals, which we use to calculate phase diagrams for systems of two-dimensional patchy particles with five regularly arranged patches that have previously been shown to form…
In this chapter, first we will address principal aspects of 1D quasiperiodicity with a particular focus on 1D Fibonacci chains. Further, the rest of the chapter will be dedicated to the electromagnetic counterpart of 1D Fibonacci structures…
Between space crystals and amorphous materials there exists a third class of aperiodic structures which lack translational symmetry but reveal long-range order. They are dubbed quasi-crystals and their formation, similarly as the formation…
We investigate a quasicontinuum method by means of analytical tools. More precisely, we compare a discrete-to-continuum analysis of an atomistic one-dimensional model problem with a corresponding quasicontinuum model. We consider next and…
Quasicrystals, a fascinating class of materials with long-range but nonperiodic order, have revolutionized our understanding of solid-state physics due to their unique properties at the crossroads of long-range-ordered and disordered…
We survey the recent developments in the theory of quasireg- ular mappings in metric spaces. In particular, we study the geometric porosity of the branch set of quasiregular mappings in general metric measure spaces, and then, introduce the…
Quasicrystals remain among the most intriguing materials in physics and chemistry. Their structure results in many unusual properties including anomalously low friction as well as poor electrical and thermal conductivity but it also…
The relative stability of three-dimensional icosahedral quasicrystals in multi-component systems has been investigated based on a coupled-mode Swift-Hohenberg model with two-length-scales. A recently developed projection method, which…
