Self-Similar Transformation and Vertex Configurations of the Octagonal Ammann-Beenker Tiling

【摘要】 Based on the matching rules for squares and rhombuses,we study the self-similar transformation and the vertex configurations of the Ammann-Beenker tiling.The structural properties of the configurations and their relations during the self-similar transformation are obtained.Our results reveal the distribution correlations of the configurations,which provide an intuitive understanding of the octagonal quasi-periodic structure and also give implications for growing perfect quasi-periodic tiling according to the local rules.更多还原
