摘要
As crystallography merges with materials science and engineering, mathematical crystallography is growing in new directions, including: Characterizing new materials with unusual properties; Imaging, including but not limited to diffraction; Exploring and exploiting superspaces; Mapping the aperiodic landscape, from chaos to classical periodicity and beyond; Re-modeling the structures of real crystals, both periodic and aperiodic; Modeling self-assembly and self-reorganization on the nanoscale. In short, it's not (just) about space groups and tilings anymore.
