Popis: | We consider a tiling model of the two-dimensional square-lattice, where each site is tiled with one of the sixteen Wang tiles. The ground states of this model are all quasi-periodic. The systems undergoes a disorder to quasi-periodicity phase transition at finite temperature. Introducing a proper order-parameter, we study the system at criticality, and extract the critical exponents characterizing the transition. The exponents obtained are consistent with hyper-scaling. |
