Abstract: A systematic analysis of structural properties and electronic properties of quasiperiodic systems is presented. The relations between quasiperiodic systems and other aperiodic systems, such as incommensurate, random, and fractal structures, are examined. The topics discussed include: the geometrical structure; X-ray and electron diffraction pattern; the electronic and phonon energy spectra and wavefunctions; dynamic wave propagation and critical phenomena in quasiperiodic systems.
