  • The single electron spectrum and wavefunctions in quasicrystals continue to be a fascinating problem, with few known solutions, especially in two and higher dimensions. This paper investigates the energy spectra and gap structures in tight-binding models on a quasiperiodic tiling in two dimensions. By varying a continuous parameter, we follow the evolution of the band structure from the discrete molecular or atomic states, to the multifractal states well-known from previous studies. We propose a scheme for labeling gaps in finite approximants. It is equivalent in the limit of infinite systems to the one presented by Kellendonk and Putnam based on the algebraic structure of this quasiperiodic system.
