The dynamical properties of Penrose tilings

Abstract: Abstract. The set of Penrose tilings, when provided with a natural compact metric topology, becomes a strictly ergodic dynamical system under the action of R 2 by translation. We show that this action is an almost 1:1 extension of a minimal R 2 action by rotations on T 4 , i.e., it is an R 2 generalization of a Sturmian dynamical system. We also show that the inflation mapping is an almost 1:1 extension of a hyperbolic automorphism on T 4 . The local topological structure of the set of Penrose tilings is descr… Show more

“…We extend this idea by showing, for substitution tilings, that ( , d, ω) is a Smale space. First we prove that the inflation map is topologically mixing; Robinson proved this for the Penrose tilings in a different way [ERob2]. PROPOSITION 3.1. ω is a topologically mixing homeomorphism of ( , d).…”

“…Here [Ken] have noted that the inflation map is hyperbolic: with each inflation, tilings that agree around the origin become exponentially closer together, while those that are close translations of each other become exponentially farther apart. Robinson has used an algebraic theory of de Bruijn to prove some measure theoretic results about this for the Penrose tilings [ERob2]. We extend this idea by showing, for substitution tilings, that ( , d, ω) is a Smale space.…”

“…In the abelian case, Schlottmann has established that there exists a continuous G‐equivariant surjective almost everywhere one‐to‐one map XP0Y known as Schlottmann's generalized torus parametrization . If P0 is non‐uniform, then no such map can exist, since XP0 contains a fixpoint and is compact, wheras Y does not contain a fixpoint and is non‐compact, so the best one can hope for is to obtain a parametrization map between the punctured hull XP0×:=XP0false{false} and Y.…”
