Book synopsis

In this up-to-date review and guide to most recent literature, the expert authors develop concepts related to quasiperiodic coverings and describe results. The text describes specific systems in 2 and 3 dimensions with many illustrations, and analyzes the atomic positions in quasicrystals.Coverings are efficient ways to exhaust Euclidean N-space with congruent geometric objects. Discrete quasiperiodic systems are exemplified by the atomic structure of quasicrystals. The subject of coverings of discrete quasiperiodic sets emerged in 1995. The theory of these coverings provides a new and fascinating perspective of order down to the atomic level. The authors develop concepts related to quasiperiodic coverings and describe results. Specific systems in 2 and 3 dimensions are described with many illustrations. The atomic positions in quasicrystals are analyzed.
