Review text

This is a summary of the quasi-addition approach to quasiperiodic point sets with five fold symmetry, as introduced by R. V. Moody and J. Patera. The connection to Dynkin diagrams and root lattices is emphasized. Though not discussed here, there are many similarities to the usual cut \& project scheme [compare \textit{M. Baake}, \textit{D. Joseph}, \textit{P. Kramer} and \textit{M. Schlottmann}; J. Phys. A, Math. Gen. 23, No. 19, L1037-L1041 (1990; Zbl 0716.52006)]. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0880.00009].
