Layer-by-Layer Growth of Ammann-Beenker Graph

Аннотация

The layer-by-layer growth of Ammann-Beenker graph (a quasi-periodic graph with eightfold symmetry) has been experimentally and theoretically studied. The limiting form for the growth of Ammann-Beenker graph is established in the form of a regular octagon, whose vertices are found explicitly. The lower and upper bounds of this form, which coincide with the growth form, are proven rigorously.
