Synopsis:

The seminar is a continuation of 01APST1. It is devoted to advanced issues of combinatorics on infinite words, non-standard numeration systems and aperiodic tilings of the space.

The seminar often hosts foreign researcher. Students participate actively in solution of open problems in the field.

Requirements:

Knowledge of mathematics in the extent of the

FNSPE bachelor's specialization Mathematical Informatics or Mathematical modeling.

Syllabus of lectures:

1. Properties of infinite words constructed as fixed points of morphisms, palindromic and pseudopalindromic closures, codings of interval exchanges.

2. Aperiodic tilings of the space, self-similarity, aperiodic Delone sets, cut-and-project sets, mathematical models of quasicrystals.

3. Number systems with complex alphabets or complex digits. Algorithms in non-standard numeration systems.
