Abstract

A substitution is a non-erasing morphism of the free monoid. The notion of multidimensional substitution of non-constant length acting on multidimensional words is proved to be well-defined on the set of two-dimensional words related to discrete approximations of irrational planes. Such a multidimensional substitution can be associated with any usual unimodular substitution. The aim of this paper is to extend the domain of definition of such multidimensional substitutions to functional stepped surfaces. One central tool for this extension is the notion of flips acting on tilings by lozenges of the plane.
