Over the past 25 years, dimer models have been an active area of research at
the intersection of probability and mathematical physics. However, a majority
of the work studying dimer models has been restricted to periodic cases. In
this talk, I will introduce a non-periodic dimer model which I call the split two-
periodic Aztec diamond. I will discuss how the correlation kernel of the model
can be derived and how the scaling limit behavior of the model relates to the
typical two-periodic Aztec diamond. Time permitting I will discuss extensions
of this model.
