Abstract

Motivated by the study of Fibonacci-like Wang shifts, we define a numeration system for \(\mathbb {Z}\) and \(\mathbb {Z}^2\) based on the binary alphabet \(\{0,1\}\). We introduce a set of 16 Wang tiles that admits a valid tiling of the plane described by a deterministic finite automaton taking as input the representation of a position \((m,n)\in \mathbb {Z}^2\) and outputting a Wang tile.

Notes

  1. 1.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two’s_complement.

  2. 2.

    In contrast to [BR10] we omit the coding as it is the identity map.

  3. 3.

    Note that from now on, \(\sigma \) denotes the shift action and not a morphism.
