The diffraction image of a quasicrystal admits a finite group G as a symmetry group, and the quasicrystal can be regarded as a quasiperiodic packing of copies of a G-cluster C, joined by glue atoms. The physical space E containing C can be…
Model sets play a fundamental role in structure analysis of quasicrystals. The diffraction diagram of a quasicrystal admits as symmetry group a finite group G, and there is a G-cluster C (union of orbits of G) such that the quasicrystal can…
Atomic-resolution electron microscope images show that a quasicrystal is a quasiperiodic packing of clusters. The outer atomic shells of multi-shell clusters occuring in quasicrystals are highly symmetric and rather robust, but some…
Many of the mathematical models used in quasicrystal physics are based on tilings of the plane or space obtained by using strip projection method in a superspace of dimension four, five or six. We present some mathematical results which…
Some of the most remarkable tilings and discrete quasiperiodic sets used in quasicrystal physics can be obtained by using strip projection method in a superspace of dimension four, five or six, and the projection of a unit hypercube as a…
A quasiperiodic packing Q of interpenetrating copies of C, most of them only partially occupied, can be defined in terms of the strip projection method for any icosahedral cluster C. We show that in the case when the coordinates of the…
We present some mathematical results concerning the strip projection method and a computer program for generating quasiperiodic packings of decagonal two shell-clusters.
The strip projection method is the most important way to generate quasiperiodic patterns with predefined local structure. We have obtained a very efficient algorithm for this method which allows one to use it in superspaces of very high…
This paper continues our study of quasicrystals initiated in Part I. We propose a general mechanism for constructing quasicrystals, existing globally in time, in spatially-extended systems (partial differential equations with Euclidean…
The architecture of infinite structures with non-crystallographic symmetries can be modeled via aperiodic tilings, but a systematic construction method for finite structures with non-crystallographic symmetry at different radial levels is…
The fairly recent discovery of "quasicrystals", whose X-ray diffraction patterns reveal certain peculiar features which do not conform with spatial periodicity, has motivated studies of the wave-dynamical implications of "aperiodic order".…
We introduce a construction to embed a quasiperiodic lattice of obstacles into a single unit cell of a higher-dimensional space, with periodic boundary conditions. This construction transparently shows the existence of channels in these…
In a recent Letter we proposed a means to realize a quasicrystal with eight-fold symmetry by trapping particles in an optical potential created by four lasers. The quasicrystals obtained in this way, which are closely related to the…
Relying on rays, we search for submodules of a module V over a supertropical semiring on which a given anisotropic quadratic form is quasilinear. Rays are classes of a certain equivalence relation on V, that carry a notion of convexity,…
Modulated crystals and quasicrystals can simultaneously be described as modulated quasicrystals, a class of point sets introduced by de Bruijn in 1987. With appropriate modulation functions, modulated quasicrystals themselves constitute a…
The notion of magnetic symmetry is reexamined in light of the recent observation of long range magnetic order in icosahedral quasicrystals [Charrier et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 78, 4637 (1997)]. The relation between the symmetry of a…
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…
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…
In the window approach to quasicrystals, the atomic position space E_parallel is embedded into a space E^n = E_parallel + E_perp. Windows are attached to points of a lattice Lambda \in E^n. For standard 5fold and icosahedral tiling models,…
We characterize all the locally compact abelian (LCA) groups that contain quasicrystals (a class of model sets). Moreover, we describe all possible quasicrystals in the group constructing an appropriate lattice associated with the cut and…
