Quasicrystals and geometry: a Book Review
Penrose tilings (Fig. 1) are beautiful. They also suggest significant new mathematics, so it is about time someone wrote a book about them which is readable (in fact, eminently readable) by mathematicians. The book, Quasicrystals and geometry, by Marjorie Senechal, has an even broader goal: to present certain developments in crystallography from the past decade. The developments were generated ...

متن کاملAbsolute Parallelism Geometry: Developments, Applications and Problems
Absolute parallelism geometry is frequently used for physical applications. It has two main defects, from the point of view of applications. The first is the identical vanishing of its curvature tensor. The second is that its autoparallel paths do not represent physical trajectories. The present work shows how these defects were treated in the course of development of the geometry. The new vers...
متن کاملBounds on dissipation in MHD problems in plane shear geometry
The total dissipation rate for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows in plane geometry with both velocity and magnetic shear is studied. For some boundary conditions it is shown that the lower bound on the dissipation rate is achieved by the equivalent of Stokes flow for MHD. Using the ‘background method’ (Doering & Constantin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 69, 1648–1651 (1992)) upper bounds for the dissipation r...
