Getting a grasp of what aperiodic order really entails is going to require collecting and understanding many diverse examples. Aperiodic crystals are at the top of the largely unknown iceberg beneath. Here we present a recently studied form of random point process in the (complex) plane which arises as the sets of zeros of a specific class of analytic functions given by power series with randomly chosen coefficients: Gaussian analytic functions (GAF). These point sets differ from Poisson processes by having a sort of built in repulsion between points, though the resulting sets almost surely fail both conditions of the Delone property. Remarkably the point sets that arise as the zeros of GAFs determine a random point process which is, in distribution, invariant under rotation and translation. In addition, there is a logarithmic potential function for which the zeros are the attractors, and the resulting basins of attraction produce tilings of the plane by tiles which are, almost surely, all of the same area. We discuss GAFs along with their tilings and diffraction, and as well note briefly their relationship to determinantal point processes, which are also of physical interest.

Abstract We prove the Bernoulli property for determinantal point processes on $ \mathbb{R}^d $ with translation-invariant kernels. For the determinantal point processes on $ \mathbb{Z}^d $ with translation-invariant kernels, the Bernoulli property was proved by Lyons and Steif [Stationary determinantal processes: phase multiplicity, bernoullicity, and domination. Duke Math. J.120 (2003), 515–575] and Shirai and Takahashi [Random point fields associated with certain Fredholm determinants II: fermion shifts and their ergodic properties. Ann. Probab.31 (2003), 1533–1564]. We prove its continuum version. For this purpose, we also prove the Bernoulli property for the tree representations of the determinantal point processes.

AbstractFor a determinantal point process (DPP) X with a kernel K whose spectrum is strictly less than one, André Goldman has established a coupling to its reduced Palm process $X^u$ at a point u with $K(u,u)>0$ so that, almost surely, $X^u$ is obtained by removing a finite number of points from X. We sharpen this result, assuming weaker conditions and establishing that $X^u$ can be obtained by removing at most one point from X, where we specify the distribution of the difference $\xi_u: = X\setminus X^u$. This is used to discuss the degree of repulsiveness in DPPs in terms of $\xi_u$, including Ginibre point processes and other specific parametric models for DPPs.

Determinantal point processes (DPPs) were introduced by Macchi (Macchi 1975 Adv. Appl. Probab. 7 , 83–122) as a model for repulsive (fermionic) particle distributions. But their recent popularization is largely due to their usefulness for encouraging diversity in the final stage of a recommender system (Kulesza & Taskar 2012 Found. Trends Mach. Learn. 5 , 123–286). The standard sampling scheme for finite DPPs is a spectral decomposition followed by an equivalent of a randomly diagonally pivoted Cholesky factorization of an orthogonal projection, which is only applicable to Hermitian kernels and has an expensive set-up cost. Researchers Launay et al. 2018 ( http://arxiv.org/abs/1802.08429 ); Chen & Zhang 2018 NeurIPS ( https://papers.nips.cc/paper/7805-fast-greedy-map-inference-for-determinantal-point-process-to-improve-recommendation-diversity.pdf ) have begun to connect DPP sampling to LDL H factorizations as a means of avoiding the initial spectral decomposition, but existing approaches have only outperformed the spectral decomposition approach in special circumstances, where the number of kept modes is a small percentage of the ground set size. This article proves that trivial modifications of LU and LDL H factorizations yield efficient direct sampling schemes for non-Hermitian and Hermitian DPP kernels, respectively. Furthermore, it is experimentally shown that even dynamically scheduled, shared-memory parallelizations of high-performance dense and sparse-direct factorizations can be trivially modified to yield DPP sampling schemes with essentially identical performance. The software developed as part of this research, Catamari ( hodgestar.com/catamari ) is released under the Mozilla Public License v.2.0. It contains header-only, C++14 plus OpenMP 4.0 implementations of dense and sparse-direct, Hermitian and non-Hermitian DPP samplers. This article is part of a discussion meeting issue ‘Numerical algorithms for high-performance computational science’.
