Groups, Lie algebras and Gauss decompositions for one dimensional tilings (Q874878)

For one-dimensional tilings, the authors define associated groups and Lie algebras and prove that the groups have Gauss decompositions as well as that the Lie algebras also have additive Gauss decompositions. In more detail, they discuss a tiling of the real line \(\mathbb R\) and construct tiling monoids (Section 2), tiling bialgebras (Section 3), tiling Lie algebras (Section 4) and tiling groups (Section 5). They establish Gauss decompositions for the tiling groups (Sections 6, 7, 8), also reach certain additive Gauss decompositions for tiling Lie algebras (Section 9). Those decompositions are fundamental in algebra, which can be very helpful to study many kinds of invariants for mathematical objects.
