The main object of the paper are quasicrystals. The Fourier quasicrystal is an (infinite) pure point measure, whose Fourier transform is also a pure point measure. If the measure is supported on a discrete set, the latter is called the support of the measure. If the Fourier transform is also a pure point measure, it is defined on the set which is called the spectrum. It is proved in the recent work of the authors that if both sets are both uniformly discrete, then the support is contained in a finite union of translates of an arithmetic progression.The cut-and-project construction, introduced by Y. Meyer, suggests many examples of such measures. In the mentioned work, the authors showed that such a measure can be obtained from Poisson's summation formula by a finite number of shifts, multiplications by exponentials and taking linear combinations. On the other hand, somewhat later the authors succeeded to weaken assumptions on measures in the way that only the spectrum is assumed to be a uniformly discrete set, while the support is just a discrete closed set. In the paper under review, the authors prove the sharpness of the obtained results so that the conclusion on the periodic structure fails to hold if both the support and the spectrum are just discrete close sets.
