Abstract

Consider an iterated function system consisting of similarities on the complex plane of the form gi(z)=λiz+ti, λi,tiC, λi<1,i=1,,kg_{i}(z) = \lambda_i z + t_i,\ \lambda_i, t_i \in \mathbb{C},\ |\lambda_i|<1, i=1,\ldots, k. We prove that for almost every choice of (λ1,,λk)(\lambda_1, \ldots, \lambda_k) in the super-critical region (with fixed translations and probabilities), the corresponding self-similar measure is absolutely continuous. This extends results of Shmerkin-Solomyak (in the homogenous case) and Saglietti-Shmerkin-Solomyak (in the one-dimensional non-homogeneous case). As the main steps of the proof, we obtain results on the dimension and power Fourier decay of random self-similar measures on the plane, which may be of independent interest.
