Tilings of the hyperbolic plane of substitutive origin as subshifts of finite type on Baumslag–Solitar groups $\mathit{BS}(1,n)$

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Mathématique
We present a technique to lift some tilings of the discrete hyperbolic plane –tilings defined by a 1D substitution– into a zero entropy subshift of finite type (SFT) on non-abelian amenable groups $\mathit{BS}(1,n)$ for $n\ge 2$.

Shield tilings [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions on Combinatorics
We provide a complete description of the edge-to-edge tilings with a regular triangle and a shield-shaped hexagon with no right angle. The case of a hexagon with a right angle is also briefly discussed.

Tilings, tiling spaces and topology [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Magazine, 2006
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 properties of the space (such as mixing, or the spectrum of the translation operator) are closely related to bulk ...

Rhombic tilings and Bott-Samelson varieties

open access: yes, 2016
S.~Elnitsky (1997) gave an elegant bijection between rhombic tilings of $2n$-gons and commutation classes of reduced words in the symmetric group on $n$ letters.

On‐Surface Indigo‐Based Bimolecular Coordination Networks with Programmable Regular or Vitreous Structure

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A previously unreported coordination motif stabilising single Fe atoms by indigo chelation and pyridyl coordination on Au(111) has been revealed. By using planar tritopic pyridyl linkers (TPyB), extended 2D porous networks of indigo3(TPyB)2Fe6 form. These networks can be crystalline or vitreous and offer an environment where individual coordination ...

Classical Dimers on Penrose Tilings

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2020
We study the classical dimer model on rhombic Penrose tilings, whose edges and vertices may be identified as those of a bipartite graph. We find that Penrose tilings do not admit perfect matchings (defect-free dimer coverings).

Spotlight Tiling

open access: yesAnnals of Combinatorics, 2010
This article introduces spotlight tiling, a type of covering which is similar to tiling. The distinguishing aspects of spotlight tiling are that the "tiles" have elastic size, and that the order of placement is significant. Spotlight tilings are decompositions, or coverings, and can be considered dynamic as compared to typical static tiling methods.

C*-algebras of Penrose's hyperbolic tilings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Penrose hyperbolic tilings are tilings of the hyperbolic plane which admit, up to affine transformations a finite number of prototiles. In this paper, we give a complete description of the C*-algebras and of the K-theory for such tilings.

Golden‐Ratio–Guided Aperiodic Architected Metamaterials with Simultaneously Enhanced Strength and Toughness

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by the golden ratio, a class of aperiodic architected metamaterials is introduced to address the intrinsic trade‐off between strength and toughness. By unifying local geometric heterogeneity with global order, the golden‐ratio‐guided aperiodic architecture promotes spatial delocalization of damage tolerence regions, leading to more tortuous ...

Metaheuristic generation of brane tilings

open access: yesPhysics Letters B
The combinatorics of dimer models on brane tilings describe a large class of four-dimensional N=1 gauge theories that afford quiver descriptions and have toric moduli spaces. We introduce a combinatorial optimization method leveraging simulated annealing
