Description
Aperiodic tilings have long fascinated mathematicians and physicists alike. This book explores their properties and the rich mathematical theory underlying them. By combining ideas from diverse fields, including ergodic theory, functional analysis, group theory, ring theory, statistical mechanics, and wave diffraction, Charles Radin reveals new insights into these complex structures. The author's interdisciplinary approach leads to a deeper understanding of aperiodic tilings and their connections to seemingly unrelated areas of mathematics. The book is enriched with many worked examples and numerous illustrations, making it an invaluable resource for mathematicians seeking to expand their knowledge in this field. For those interested in exploring the subtleties of aperiodic tilings, this book provides a comprehensive introduction, filling a gap in the existing literature. Its unique blend of mathematical and physical perspectives makes it an attractive choice for researchers and students alike.
