Mathematical Sciences: The Mathematical Physics of Crystals

雷丁教授将继续研究这个问题 为什么某些类型的物质在低温下处于有序状态 温度 最近的研究结果表明，一般来说， 在零温度下的完美（晶体）秩序是不可能的。 预期 雷丁的研究将涉及非周期性的平铺， 唯一遍历的符号动力系统，以确定 在零和低温度下可以产生的无序范围 温度

Professor Radin will continue his research on the question of why certain types of matter are in an ordered state at low temperature. Recent results have shown that generically, perfect (crystalline) order at zero temperature is not to be expected. Radin's research will involve nonperiodic tilings and uniquely ergodic symbolic dynamical systems to determine the range of disorder that can be produced at zero and low temperature.
