Minkowski measurability results for self-similar tilings and fractals with monophase generators

Abstract

In a previous paper [arXiv:1006.3807], the authors obtained tube formulas for certain fractals under rather general conditions. Based on these formulas, we give here a characterization of Minkowski measurability of a certain class of self-similar tilings and self-similar sets. Under appropriate hypotheses, self-similar tilings with simple generators (more precisely, monophase generators) are shown to be Minkowski measurable if and only if the associated scaling zeta function is of nonlattice type. Under a natural geometric condition on the tiling, the result is transferred to the associated self-similar set (i.e., the fractal itself). Also, the latter is shown to be Minkowski measurable if and only if the associated scaling zeta function is of nonlattice type.
