On Helly number for crystals and cut-and-project sets

Abstract: We prove existence of finite Helly numbers for crystals and for cut-and-project sets with convex windows; also we prove exact bound of

k + 6

for the Helly number of a crystal consisting of

k

copies of a single lattice. We show that there are sets of finite local complexity that do not have finite Helly numbers.
