The aim of this paper is to provide a different perspective in the study of the rate of convergence of the chaos game algorithm to the attractor of an iterated function system. We prove that for any function $\psi$ with $\lim\limits_{\ve\to…

In the paper we unify two extensions of the classical Hutchinson--Barnsley theory - the topological and the fuzzy-set approaches. We show that a fuzzy iterated function system (fuzzy IFS) on a Tychonoff space $X$ which is contracting w.r.t.…

For a metric Peano continuum $X$, let $S_X$ be a Sierpi\'nski function assigning to each $\varepsilon>0$ the smallest cardinality of a cover of $X$ by connected subsets of diameter $\le \varepsilon$. We prove that for any increasing…

Iterated function systems (IFSs) and their attractors have been central to the theory of fractal geometry almost from its inception. And contractivity of the functions in the IFS has been central to the theory of iterated functions systems.…

We prove that the idempotent Markov operator generated by contractive max plus normalized iterated function system (IFS) is also a contractive map w.r.t. natural metrics on the space of idempotent measures. This gives alternative proofs of…

We review the theory of semiattractors associated with non-contractive Iterated Function Systems (IFSs) and demonstrate its applications on a concrete example. In particular, we present criteria for the existence of semiattractors due to…

By a metric fractal we understand a compact metric space $K$ endowed with a finite family $\mathcal F$ of contracting self-maps of $K$ such that $K=\bigcup_{f\in\mathcal F}f(K)$. If $K$ is a subset of a metric space $X$ and each…

We provide a new approach to the Hutchinson-Barnsley theory for idempotent measures first presented in N. Mazurenko, M. Zarichnyi, Invariant idempotent measures, Carpathian Math. Publ., 10 (2018), 1, 172--178. The main feature developed…

We introduce the discrete version of the Hutchinson--Barnsley theory providing algorithms to approximate the Hutchinson measure for iterated function systems (IFS) and generalized iterated function systems (GIFS) complementing the discrete…

We give a systematic account of iterated function systems (IFS) of weak contractions of different types (Browder, Rakotch, topological). We show that the existence of attractors and asymptotically stable invariant measures, and the validity…

We provide a new algorithm to generate images of the generalized fuzzy fractal attractors described in Oliveira-2017. We also provide some important results on the approximation of fractal operators to discrete subspaces with application to…

A countable poset is ultrahomogeneous if every isomorphism between its finite subposets can be extended to an automorphism. The groups $\operatorname{Aut}(A)$ of such posets $A$ have a natural topology in which $\operatorname{Aut}(A)$ are…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $f,g:X\rightarrow X$ be contractions. We investigate the set $$ C_{f,g}:=\{w\in X:\m{ the attractor of IFS }\F_w=\{f,g+w\}\m{ is connected}\}. $$ The motivation for our research comes from papers of Mihail and…

Miculescu and Mihail in 2008 introduced the concept of a \emph{generalized iterated function system} (GIFS in~short), a particular extension of the classical IFS. The idea is that, instead of families of selfmaps of a metric space~$X$,…

The aim of this paper is to prove a counterpart of the Banach fixed point principle for mappings $f: \ell_\infty(X) \to X$, where $X$ is a metric space and $\ell_\infty(X)$ is the space of all bounded sequences of elements from~$X$. Our…

Cabrelli, Forte, Molter and Vrscay in 1992 considered a {fuzzy} version of the theory of iterated function systems (IFSs in short) and their fractals%The idea was to extend the classical Hutchinson-Barnsley operator to selfmaps of a metric…

A topological space $X$ is called a topological fractal if $X=\bigcup_{f\in\mathcal F}f(X)$ for a finite system $\mathcal F$ of continuous self-maps of $X$, which is topologically contracting in the sense that for every open cover $\mathcal…

Let $X$ be a universal (Urysohn) space. We prove that every topological fractal is homeomorphic (isometric) to the attractor $A_{\mathcal F}$ of a function system ${\mathcal F}$ on $X$ consisting of Rakotch contractions.

In this paper we study the Hutchinson-Barnsley theory of fractals in the setting of multimetric spaces (which are sets endowed with point separating families of pseudometrics) and in the setting of topological spaces. We find natural…
