Abstract

The structural chemistry of the lovozerite group of minerals is considered using concepts of coordination polyhedra, finite automata and local order. A formal language for these lovozerite-type structures is constructed and the concept of a genetic code for this structure family is suggested. Information and structure are seen to be dialectically interlinked.
