The diffraction spectrum of an aperiodic solid is related to the group of eigenvalues of the dynamical system associated with the solid. Those eigenvalues with continuous eigenfunctions constitute the topological Bragg spectrum. We relate the topological Bragg spectrum to the gap-labelling group, which is the group of possible gap labels for the spectrum of a Schrödinger operator describing the electronic motion in the solid.

To a given tiling a noncommutative space and the corresponding C*-algebra are constructed. This includes the definition of a topology on the groupoid induced by translations of the tiling. The…

Equicontinuous Factors, Proximality and Ellis Semigroup for Delone Sets
We discuss the application of various concepts from the theory of topological dynamical systems to Delone sets and tilings. In particular, we consider the maximal equicontinuous factor of a Delone…
