Abstract

Exact regularity was introduced recently as a property of homological Pisot substitutions in one dimension. In this paper, we consider the analog of exact regularity for arbitrary tiling spaces. Let T be a d-dimensional repetitive tiling, and let Ω be its hull. If Ȟd(Ω,ℚ)=ℚk, then there exist k patches each of whose appearances governs the number of appearances of every other patch. This gives uniform estimates on the convergence of all patch frequencies to the ergodic limit. If the tiling T comes from a substitution, then we can quantify that convergence rate. If T is also one dimensional, we put constraints on the measure of any cylinder set in Ω.
