Key Points

  • The study constructs infinitely many aperiodic tile sets, utilizing sturmian lattices derived from quadratic slopes.
  • Key ingredients include the unique grid structure of sturmian lattices and the bounded displacement equivalence of Delone sets.
  • The approach is applicable to any quadratic irrational slope, offering versatility in generating tile sets.
  • Findings may impact the understanding of monotiles and aperiodic tiling in mathematical theory.

Abstract

We give aperiodic tile sets based on Sturmian words of quadratic slopes. The method works for any quadratic irrational slope and we can produce infinitely many aperiodic tile sets whose underlying scaling constant is a unit of any real quadratic field. There are two key ingredients in our construction. The first one is ``Sturmian lattices'', an interesting grid structure generated by Sturmian words that emerged in an aperiodic monotile called Smith Turtle. The second is the bounded displacement equivalence of Delone sets, which plays a central role in this construction.
