 Similarity and Coincidence Isometries for Modules The groups of (linear) similarity and coincidence isometries of certain modules \$\varGamma\$ in \$d\$-dimensional Euclidean space, which naturally occur in quasicrystallography, are considered. It is shown that the structure of the factor group of similarity modulo coincidence isometries is the direct sum of cyclic groups of prime power orders that divide \$d\$. In particular, if the dimension \$d\$ is a prime number \$p\$, the factor group is an elementary abelian \$p\$-group. This generalizes previous results obtained for lattices to situations relevant in quasicrystallography. Categories:20H15, 82D25, 52C23

 Discrete Sets and Associated Dynamical\\ Systems in a Non-Commutative Setting We define a uniform structure on the set of discrete sets of a locally compact topological space on which a locally compact topological group acts continuously. Then we investigate the completeness of these uniform spaces and study these spaces by means of topological dynamical systems. Categories:52C23, 37B50

 Kolakoski-\$(3,1)\$ Is a (Deformed) Model Set Unlike the (classical) Kolakoski sequence on the alphabet \$\{1,2\}\$, its analogue on \$\{1,3\}\$ can be related to a primitive substitution rule. Using this connection, we prove that the corresponding bi-infinite fixed point is a regular generic model set and thus has a pure point diffraction spectrum. The Kolakoski-\$(3,1)\$ sequence is then obtained as a deformation, without losing the pure point diffraction property. Categories:52C23, 37B10, 28A80, 43A25

 Pure Discrete Spectrum for One-dimensional Substitution Systems of Pisot Type We consider two dynamical systems associated with a substitution of Pisot type: the usual \$\mathbb{Z}\$-action on a sequence space, and the \$\mathbb{R}\$-action, which can be defined as a tiling dynamical system or as a suspension flow. We describe procedures for checking when these systems have pure discrete spectrum (the ``balanced pairs algorithm'' and the ``overlap algorithm'') and study the relation between them. In particular, we show that pure discrete spectrum for the \$\mathbb{R}\$-action implies pure discrete spectrum for the \$\mathbb{Z}\$-action, and obtain a partial result in the other direction. As a corollary, we prove pure discrete spectrum for every \$\mathbb{R}\$-action associated with a two-symbol substitution of Pisot type (this is conjectured for an arbitrary number of symbols).

 Local Complexity of Delone Sets and Crystallinity This paper characterizes when a Delone set \$X\$ in \$\mathbb{R}^n\$ is an ideal crystal in terms of restrictions on the number of its local patches of a given size or on the heterogeneity of their distribution. For a Delone set \$X\$, let \$N_X (T)\$ count the number of translation-inequivalent patches of radius \$T\$ in \$X\$ and let \$M_X(T)\$ be the minimum radius such that every closed ball of radius \$M_X(T)\$ contains the center of a patch of every one of these kinds. We show that for each of these functions there is a ``gap in the spectrum'' of possible growth rates between being bounded and having linear growth, and that having sufficiently slow linear growth is equivalent to \$X\$ being an ideal crystal. Explicitly, for \$N_X(T)\$, if \$R\$ is the covering radius of \$X\$ then either \$N_X(T)\$ is bounded or \$N_X (T) \ge T/2R\$ for all \$T>0\$. The constant \$1/2R\$ in this bound is best possible in all dimensions. For \$M_X(T)\$, either \$M_X(T)\$ is bounded or \$M_X(T)\ge T/3\$ for all \$T>0\$. Examples show that the constant \$1/3\$ in this bound cannot be replaced by any number exceeding \$1/2\$. We also show that every aperiodic Delone set \$X\$ has \$M_X(T)\ge c(n) T\$ for all \$T>0\$, for a certain constant \$c(n)\$ which depends on the dimension \$n\$ of \$X\$ and is \$>1/3\$ when \$n>1\$.

 Diffraction of Weighted Lattice Subsets A Dirac comb of point measures in Euclidean space with bounded complex weights that is supported on a lattice \$\varGamma\$ inherits certain general properties from the lattice structure. In particular, its autocorrelation admits a factorization into a continuous function and the uniform lattice Dirac comb, and its diffraction measure is periodic, with the dual lattice \$\varGamma^*\$ as lattice of periods. This statement remains true in the setting of a locally compact Abelian group whose topology has a countable base.

 Uniform Distribution in Model Sets We give a new measure-theoretical proof of the uniform distribution property of points in model sets (cut and project sets). Each model set comes as a member of a family of related model sets, obtained by joint translation in its ambient (the `physical') space and its internal space. We prove, assuming only that the window defining the model set is measurable with compact closure, that almost surely the distribution of points in any model set from such a family is uniform in the sense of Weyl, and almost surely the model set is pure point diffractive.
