Fractal Penrose tiles II: Tiles with fractal boundary as duals of Penrose triangles.
In this paper, we extend to automorphisms of free groups some results and constructions that classically hold for morphisms of the free monoid, i.e., the so-called substitutions. A geometric representation of the attractive lamination of a class of automorphisms of the free group (irreducible with irreducible powers (iwip) automorphisms) is given in the case where the dilation coefficient of the automorphism is a unit Pisot number. The shift map associated with the attractive symbolic lamination...
We prove that under appropriate assumptions adding or removing an infinite amount of edges to a given planar graph preserves its non-hyperbolicity, a result which is shown to be false in general. In particular, we make a conjecture that every tessellation graph of ℝ2 with convex tiles is non-hyperbolic; it is shown that in order to prove this conjecture it suffices to consider tessellation graphs of ℝ2 such that every tile is a triangle and a partial answer to this question is given. A weaker version...
In this paper, we study two kinds of combinatorial objects, generalized integer partitions and tilings of -gons (hexagons, octagons, decagons, etc.). We show that the sets of partitions, ordered with a simple dynamics, have the distributive lattice structure. Likewise, we show that the set of tilings of a -gon is the disjoint union of distributive lattices which we describe. We also discuss the special case of linear integer partitions, for which other dynamical models exist.

The paper studies the diagrams of woven fabrics consisting of white and black squares as geometrical objects and described their symmetries. The concepts of isonemality and mononemality due to B. Grünbaum and G. C. Shephard are used. A conjecture of these authors is proved in a particular case.
We show using non-intersecting paths, that a random rhombus tiling of a hexagon, or a boxed planar partition, is described by a determinantal point process given by an extended Hahn kernel.
