Fang Fang presents a new method of generating empires for local vertex configurations in quasicrystals. She introduces the concept of the empire problem in quasicrystals and its important application in modeling non-local particle interaction in physics. Two old methods of generating the empire of the Penrose tiling are briefly introduced. […]
