Info

This tiling was originally introduced in [WSI87] , however the description given there admits several substitution rules. This is the version given explicitly in [WSI95] . This is an example of a cut and project with a mixed internal space, a product of Euclidean and $p$-adic spaces, namely $\mathbb{R}^2 \times \mathbb{Q}_2$.
