Description

[画像:Dragon Tile] Four Programs for calculating Dr. Richard Kenyon's method for plane tilings from Perron numbers by substitutions.

The construction of self-similar tilings , Geom. and Func. Analysis 6,(1996):417-488. Thurston showed that the expansion constant of a self-similar tiling of the plane must be a complex Perron number (algebraic integer strictly larger in modulus than its Galois conjugates except for its complex conjugate). Here we prove that, conversely, for every complex Perron number there exists a self-similar tiling. We also classify the expansion constants for self-similar tilings which have a rotational symmetry of order n.
