The ultimate goal of the program is to develop a mathematical theory liable to describe the physical properties of all
aperiodic solids and perhaps liquids as well. Are involved the electronic properties, the electronic transport, the
diffraction and propagation of various waves degrees of freedom (phonons, spinon), the description of the structure of
the solid, of the atomic movement, the passage from a microscopic to a macroscopic description of mechanical
properties (elasticity, plasticity, fractures, viscosity for liquids).
