We prove discrete-to-continuum convergence of interaction energies defined on lattices in the Euclidean space (with interactions beyond nearest neighbours) to a crystalline perimeter, and we discuss the possible Wulff shapes obtainable in this way. Exploiting the “multigrid construction” of quasiperiodic tilings (which is an extension of De Bruijn’s “pentagrid” construction of Penrose tilings) we adapt the same techniques to also find the macroscopical homogenized perimeter when we…

Maximal Fluctuations on Periodic Lattices: An Approach via Quantitative Wulff Inequalities
We consider the Wulff problem arising from the study of the Heitmann–Radin energy of N atoms sitting on a periodic lattice. Combining the sharp quantitative Wulff inequality in the continuum setting…
N 3 / 4 Law in the Cubic Lattice.
We investigate the Edge-Isoperimetric Problem (EIP) for sets with n elements of the cubic lattice by emphasizing its relation with the emergence of the Wulff shape in the crystallization problem.…
Equivalence of the generalised grid and projection methods for the construction of quasiperiodic tilings
The two main techniques for the generation of quasiperiodic tilings, de Bruijn's grid method (1981), and the projection formalism, are generalised. A very broad class of quasiperiodic tilings is…
Interfacial energies on quasicrystals
We consider nearest-neighbour ferromagnetic energies defined on a quasicrystal modeled following the so-called cut-and-project approach as a portion of a regular lattice contained in a possibly…
Limits of Discrete Systems with Long-Range Interactions
In this paper we consider the problem of the description of the continuum limit of discrete systems with long-range interactions defined on a cubic lattice as the lattice parameters tend to 0.…
Finite crystallization in the square lattice
This paper addresses two-dimensional crystallization in the square lattice. A suitable configurational potential featuring both two- and three-body short-ranged particle interactions is considered.…

Maximal fluctuations around the Wulff shape for edge-isoperimetric sets in ${\mathbb Z^d}$: a sharp scaling law
We derive a sharp scaling law for deviations of edge-isoperimetric sets in the lattice $\mathbb Z^d$ from the limiting Wulff shape in arbitrary dimensions. As the number $n$ of elements diverges, we…
Minimizing atomic configurations of short range pair potentials in two dimensions: crystallization in the Wulff shape
We investigate ground state configurations of atomic systems in two dimensions interacting via short range pair potentials. As the number of particles tends to infinity, we show that low-energy…
Substitution tilings and separated nets with similarities to the integer lattice
We show that any primitive substitution tiling of ℝ2 creates a separated net which is biLipschitz to ℤ2. Then we show that if H is a primitive Pisot substitution in ℝd, for every separated net Y,…
