To understand an aperiodic tiling (or a quasicrystal modeled on an aperiodic tiling), we construct a space of similar tilings, on which the group of translations acts naturally. This space is then an (abstract) dynamical system. Dynamical…

This is a chapter in an upcoming book on aperiodic order. We go over different versions of tiling cohomology (\v Cech, pattern-equivariant, PV, quotient) with emphasis on the inverse limit constructions used to compute these cohomologies.…

We derive a homeomorphism invariant for those tiling spaces which are made by rather general substitution rules on polygonal tiles, including those tilings, like the pinwheel, which contain tiles in infinitely many orientations. The…

We look at the topology of the tiling space of locally random Fibonacci substitution, which is defined as a-->ba with probability p, a-->ab with probability 1-p and b-->a for 0<p<1. We show that its Cech cohomology group is not finitely…

The Heesch problem 'grades' polygons that fail to tile the plane in terms of the number of layers (or corollas) of copies of it that can be formed around a central unit. We study the different topology of ' walls', which we define to be…

Inspired by the modelization of 2D materials systems, we characterize arrangements of identical nonflat squares in 3D. We prove that the fine geometry of such arrangements is completely characterized in terms of patterns of mutual…

We generalise the notion of a Barge-Diamond complex, in the one-dimensional case, to a mixed system of tiling substitutions. This gives a way of describing the associated tiling space as an inverse limit of Barge-Diamond complexes. We give…

We propose a formalism for tilings with infinite local complexity (ILC), and especially fusion tilings with ILC. We allow an infinite variety of tile types but require that the space of possible tile types be compact. Examples include…

In the present paper, as we did previously in [7], we investigate the relations between the geometric properties of tilings and the algebraic properties of associated relational structures. Our study is motivated by the existence of…

We define a relative version of tiling cohomology for the purpose of comparing the topology of tiling spaces when one is a factor of the other. We illustrate this with examples, and outline a method for computing the cohomology of tiling…

Going beyond the cohomological invariants attached to tiling spaces via inverse limit constructions, Clark and Hunton introduced shape group invariants, and showed these invariants in dimension one give new information. We show for…

A continuous cohomology theory for topological quandles is introduced, and compared to the algebraic theories. Extensions of topological quandles are studied with respect to continuous 2-cocycles, and used to show the differences in second…

We study $C^1$-regular surfaces in $R^3$ that admit tilings by a finite number of rigid motion congruence classes of tiles. We construct examples with various topologies and present a framework for a systematic study, mainly concentrating…

One of the advantages of working with Alexander-Spanier-\v{C}ech type cohomology theory is the continuity property: For inverse systems of sufficiently well-behaved spaces, the result of taking the cohomology of their limit is a direct…

In this note we use techniques in the topology of 2-complexes to recast some tools that have arisen in the study of planar tiling questions. With spherical pictures we show that the tile counting group associated to a set $T$ of tiles and a…

We study here slopes of periodicity of tilings. A tiling is of slope if it is periodic along direction but has no other direction of periodicity. We characterize in this paper the set of slopes we can achieve with tilings, and prove they…

We compute the Cech cohomology with integer coefficients of one-dimensional tiling spaces arising from not just one, but several different substitutions, all acting on the same set of tiles. These calculations involve the introduction of a…

We study the minimal complexity of tilings of a plane with a given tile set. We note that every tile set admits either no tiling or some tiling with O(n) Kolmogorov complexity of its n-by-n squares. We construct tile sets for which this…

Given a finite collection of two-dimensional tile types, the field of study concerned with covering the plane with tiles of these types exclusively has a long history, having enjoyed great prominence in the last six to seven decades. Much…

The quotient cohomology of tiling spaces is a topological invariant that relates a tiling space to one of its factors, viewed as topological dynamical systems. In particular, it is a relative version of the tiling cohomology that…
