The authors present their results beginning with a short introduction containing some natural motivations of their investigations: The discovery of quasicrystals in the 1980s inspired a lot of research in the area of ``periodic order'' and ``mathematical quasicrystals''. Roughly speaking, physical quasicrystals are aperiodic structures which exhibit sharp bright spots (called Bragg peaks) in their \(X\)-ray diffraction pattern. (\dots) A mathematical idealization of a large set of atoms is a discrete set in \(\mathbb R^d\). The most general class of sets modeling solids is the class of Delone sets, that is, subsets of \(\mathbb R^d\) which are relatively dense and uniformly discrete. Certain additional properties of Delone sets, including pure point diffractive and primitive substitution are defined as well as the class of Meyer sets (introduced by \textit{Y. Meyer} [``Algebraic numbers and harmonic analysis''. Amsterdam: North-Holland (1972; Zbl 0267.43001)] in the context of harmonic analysis). The main Theorem of the paper (Theorem 4.11) answers positively to a special case of a general problem of J. C. Lagarias and says that a primitive substitution Delone set, which is pure point diffractive, is a Meyer set. It is proved also that if a set is a primitive substitution Delone then it is Meyer set if and only if it has a relatively dense of Bragg peaks. Another review has been published for the reprint version, see Twentieth anniversary volume: Discrete and computational geometry. New York, NY: Springer, 317--336 (2009; Zbl 1181.52030).
