The cut and project method is a central construction in the theory of Aperiodic Order for generating quasicrystals with pure point diffraction. Linear repetitivity (LR) is a form of ideal regularity of aperiodic patterns. Recently, Koivusalo and the...

Spectral properties of substitutions on compact alphabets (2023)
Journal Article

We consider substitutions on compact alphabets and provide sufficient conditions for the diffraction to be pure point, absolutely continuous and singular continuous. This allows one to construct examples for which the Koopman operator on the associat... Read More about Spectral properties of substitutions on compact alphabets.

Cut and project sets with polytopal window II: Linear repetitivity (2022)
Journal Article

In this paper we give a complete characterisation of linear repetitivity for cut and project schemes with convex polytopal windows satisfying a weak homogeneity condition. This answers a question of Lagarias and Pleasants from the 90s for a natural c... Read More about Cut and project sets with polytopal window II: Linear repetitivity.

An aperiodic tile with edge-to-edge orientational matching rules (2021)
Journal Article

We present a single, connected tile which can tile the plane but only nonperiodically. The tile is hexagonal with edge markings, which impose simple rules as to how adjacent tiles are allowed to meet across edges. The first of these rules is a standa...

Aperiodicity, rotational tiling spaces and topological space groups (2021)
Journal Article

We study the rotational structures of aperiodic tilings in Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension using topological methods. Classical topological approaches to the study of aperiodic patterns have largely concentrated just on translational structure...
