Abstract

We construct a family of self-affine tiles in ℝd (d ≥ 2) with noncollinear digit sets, which naturally generalizes a class studied originally by Q.-R. Deng and K.-S. Lau in ℝ2, and its extension to ℝ3 by the authors. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the tiles to be connected and for their interiors to be contractible.
