Abstract

In Chaps. 711, we have introduced the dynamics of soft-matter quasicrystals from a unified point of view, where the quasiperiodic symmetry has been specially considered for quasicrystal applications in soft matter, such as liquid crystals, polymers, colloids, nanoparticles, surfactants, and macromolecules, etc.
