PrefacePolytope exchange transformations are higher dimensional generalizations ofinterval exchange transformations, one dimensional maps which have beenextensively and very fruitfully studied for the past 40 years or so. Polytopeexchange transformations have the added appeal that they produce intricatefractal-like tilings. At this point, the higher dimensional versions are notnearly as well understood as their 1-dimensional counterparts, and it seemsnatural to focus on such questions as finding a robust renormalization theoryfor a large class of examples.In this monograph, we introduce a general method of constructing polytope exchange transformations (PETs) in all dimensions. Our constructionis functorial in nature. One starts with a multigraph such that the verticesare labeled by convex polytopes and the edges are labeled by Euclidean lattices in such a way that each vertex label is a fundamental domain for allthe lattices labelling incident edges. There is a functor from the fundamentalgroupoid of this multigraph into the category of PETs, and the image of thisfunctor contains many interesting examples. For instance, one can producehuge multi-parameter families based on finite reflection groups.Most of the monograph is devoted to the study the simplest examples ofour construction. These examples are based on the order 8 dihedral reflectiongroup D4 . The corresponding multigraph is a digon (two vertices connectedby two edges) decorated by 2-dimensional parallelograms and lattices. Thisinput produces a 1-parameter family of polygon exchange transformationswhich we call the Octagonal PETs. One particular parameter is closelyrelated to a system studied by Adler-Kitchens-Tresser.We show that the family of octagonal PETs has a renormalization schemein which the (2, 4, ) hyperbolic reflection triangle group acts on the parameter space (by linear fractional transformations) as a renormalization symmetry group. The underlying hyperbolic geometry symmetry of the systemallows for a complete classification of the shapes of the periodic tiles and alsoa complete classification of the topology of the limit sets.We also establish a local equivalence between outer billiards on semiregular octagons and the octagonal PETs, and this gives a similarly complete description of outer billiards on semi-regular octagons. Finally, weshow how the octagonal PETs arise naturally as invariant slices of certain of4-dimensional PETs based on deformations of the E4 lattice.9

I discovered almost all the material in this monograph by computer experimentation, and then later on found rigorous proofs. Most of the proofs hereare traditional, but the proofs do rely on 12 computer calculations. Thesecalculations are described in detail in the last part of the monograph.I wrote two interactive jave programs, OctaPET and BonePET, whichillustrate essentially all the mathematics in this monograph. The reader candownload these programs from my website (as explained at the end of theintroduction) and can use them while reading the manuscript. I wrote themonograph with the intention that a serious reader would also use the programs.I would like to thank Nicolas Bedaride, Pat Hooper, Injee Jeong, JohnSmillie, and Sergei Tabachnikov for interesting conversations about topicsrelated to this work. Some of this work was carried out at ICERM in Summer2012, and most of it was carried out during my sabbatical at Oxford in 201213. I would especially like to thank All Souls College, Oxford, for providinga wonderful research environment.My sabbatical was funded from many sources. I would like to thank theNational Science Foundation, All Souls College, the Oxford Maths Institute,the Simons Foundation, the Leverhulme Trust, the Chancellor’s Professorship, and Brown University for their support during this time period.Oxford, November 201210

1Introduction1.1What is a PET?We begin by defining the main objects of study in this monograph. §2 givesmore information about what we say here.PETs: A polytope exchange transformation (or PET) is defined by a bigpolytope X which has been partitioned in two ways into small polytopes:X m[Ai i 1m[Bi .(1)i 1What we mean is that, for each i, the two polytopes Ai and Bi are translationequivalent. That is, there is some vector Vi such that Bi Ai Vi . We alwaystake the small polytopes to be convex, but sometimes X will not be convex.We define a map f : X X and its inverse f 1 : X X by the formulasf 1 (y) y Vi y int(Bi ).f (x) x Vi x int(Ai ),(2)f is not defined on points of Ai and f 1 is not defined for points in Bi .Even though f and f 1 are not everywhere defined, almost every point of xhas a well-defined forwards and backwards orbit.The Periodic Tiling: A point p X is called periodic if f n (p) p forsome n. We will establish the following well-known results in §2: If p is aperiodic point, then there is a maximal open convex polytope Up X suchthat p Up , and f, ., f n are entirely defined on Up , and every point of Upis periodic with period n. We call Up a periodic tile. We let denote theunion of periodic tiles. We call the periodic tiling.The Limit Set: When is dense in X – and this happens in the casesof interest to us here – the limit set Λ consists of those points p such thatevery neighborhood of p intersects infinitely many tiles of . Sometimes Λis called the residual set. See §2.5 for a more general definition.The Aperiodic Set: We let Λ′ Λ denote the union of points withwell-defined orbits. These orbits are necessarily aperiodic, so we call Λ′ theaperiodic set.11

1.2Some ExamplesThe simplest examples of PETs are 1-dimensional systems, known as intervalexchange transformations (IETs). Such a system is easy to produce: Partition an interval smaller intervals, then rearrange them. IETs have beenextensively studied in the past 35 years. One very early paper is [K]; seepapers [Y] and [Z] for surveys of the literature. The Rauzy induction [R]gives a satisfying renormalization theory for the family of IETs all havingthe same number of intervals in the partition.The simplest examples of higher dimensional polytope exchange transformations are products of IETs. In this case, all the polytopes are rectangularsolids. More generally, one can consider PETs (not necessarily products)in which all the polytopes are rectangular solids. In 2 dimensions, theseare called rectangle exchanges. The paper [H] establishes some foundationalresults about rectangle exchanges.The paper [AKT] gives some early examples of piecewise isometric mapswhich are not rectangle exchanges. The main example analyzed in [AKT]produces locally the same tiling as outer billiards on the regular octagon,and also the same tiling as one of the examples studied here.The papers [T2], [AE], [Go], [Low1], and [Low2] all treat a closely related set of systems with 5-fold symmetry which produce tilings by regularpentagons and/or regular decagons. The papers [AG], [LKV], [Low1], and[Low2] deal with the case of 7-fold symmetry, which is much more difficult. The difficulty comes from the fact that exp(2πi/7) is a cubic irrational,though one case with 7-fold symmetry is analyzed completely in [Low2].Outer billiards on the regular n-gon furnishes an intriguing family ofPETs. The cases n 3, 4, 6 produce regular tilings of the plane, and thecases n 5, 7, 8, 10, 12, where exp(2π/n) is a quadratic irrational, can becompletely understood in terms of renormalization. See [T2] for the casen 5, and [BC] for the other cases. There is partial information about thecase n 7, and the remaining cases are not understood at all.Some definitive theoretical work concerning the entropy of PETs is donein [GH1], [GH2], and [B]. The main results here are that such systems havezero entropy, with a suitable definition of entropy.The recent paper [Hoo] is very close in spirit to our work here. In [Hoo],the author works out a renormalization scheme for a 2-parameter family of(non-product) rectangle exchange transformations.12

1.3Goals of the MonographMultigraph PETs The first goal of this monograph is to give a generalconstruction of PETs, based on decorated multigraphs. A multigraph isa graph in which one allows multiple edges connecting different vertices.The vertices are labelled by convex polytopes and the edges are labeled byEuclidean lattices, so that a vertex is incident to an edge iff the correspondingpolytope is a fundamental domain for the corresponding lattice. Given sucha multigraph G, we choose a base vertex x and we construct a functorialhomomorphismπ1 (G, x) PET(X).(3)Here π1 (G, x) is the fundamental group of G, and PET(X) is the group ofPETs whose domain is the polytope X corresponding to x. We call theresulting systems multigraph PETs. When G is a digon–i.e. two verticesconnected by two edges, we call the system a double lattice PET . We willgive a variety of nontrivial constructions of multigraph PETs, some
