Abstract

We construct a class of connected self-affine tiles in R3 and prove that it contains a subclass of tiles that are homeomorphic to a unit ball in R3. Our construction is obtained by generalizing a two-dimensional one by Deng and Lau. The proof of ball-likeness is inspired by the construction of a homeomorphism from Alexander's horned ball to a 3-ball.
