In the interstellar medium, as well as in the Universe, large density fluctuations are observed, that obey power-law density distributions and correlation functions. These structures are hierarchical, chaotic, turbulent, but are also…
The structures formation of the Universe appears as if it were a classically self-similar random process at all astrophysical scales. An agreement is demonstrated for the present hypotheses of segregation with a size of astrophysical…
Fractal behavior and long-range dependence have been observed in tele-traffic measurement and characterization. In this paper we show results of application of the fractal analysis to internet traffic via various methods. Our result…
Building upon [1], this study aims to introduce fractal geometry into graph theory, and to establish a potential theoretical foundation for complex networks. Specifically, we employ the method of substitution to create and explore…
We present an overview of a theory of complex dimensions of self-similar fractal strings, and compare this theory to the theory of varieties over a finite field from the geometric and the dynamical point of view. Then we combine the several…
We introduce the notion of (abelian) similarity scheme, as a constructive model for topological self-similar fractals, in the same way in which the notion of iterated function system furnishes a constructive notion of self-similar fractals…
A fractal is in essence a hierarchy with cascade structure, which can be described with a set of exponential functions. From these exponential functions, a set of power laws indicative of scaling can be derived. Hierarchy structure and…
Our first experience of dimension typically comes in the intuitive Euclidean sense: a line is one dimensional, a plane is two-dimensional, and a volume is three-dimensional. However, following the work of Mandelbrot \cite{mandelbrot},…
In the present article, the main attention is given to fractal sets whose elements have certain restrictions on using digits or combinations of digits in own nega-P-representation. Topological, metric, and fractal properties of images of…
In contrast to the conventional wisdom that scale-free networks are prone to epidemic propagation, in the paper we present that disease spreading is inhibited in fractal scale-free networks. We first propose a novel network model and show…
The scaling properties of spectra of real world complex networks are studied by using the wavelet transform. It is found that the spectra of networks are multifractal. According to the values of the long-range correlation exponent, the Hust…
It is shown that, for nested fractals [T.Lindstrom, Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 420, 1990], the main structural data, such as the Hausdorff dimension and measure, the geodesic distance (when it exists) induced by the immersion in $R^n$, and the…
In the present work we explore resistive circuits where the individual resistors are arranged in fractal-like patterns. These circuits have some of the characteristics typically found in geometric fractals, namely self-similarity and scale…
Fractals represent one of the fundamental manifestations of complexity, and fractal networks serve as tools for characterizing and investigating the fractal structures and properties of large-scale systems. Higher-order networks have…
Methods connecting dynamical systems and graph theory have attracted increasing interest in the past few years, with applications ranging from a detailed comparison of different kinds of dynamics to the characterisation of empirical data.…
Social network structure is very important for understanding human information diffusing, cooperating and competing patterns. It can bring us with some deep insights about how people affect each other. As a part of complex networks, social…
Fractals emerge everywhere in nature, exhibiting intricate geometric complexities through the self-organizing patterns that span across multiple scales. Here, we investigate beyond steady-states the interplay between this geometry and the…
Depending on a natural parameter $l$, we study the topological, metric, and fractal properties of the homogeneous self-similar set $$K_{l}=\left\{\sum_{i=1}^{\infty} \frac{\varepsilon_i}{(2l+2)^i} : (\varepsilon_i) \in \{0, 2, 4, \dots, 2l,…
In light of the emergence of big data, I have advocated and argued for a paradigm shift from Tobler's law to scaling law, from Euclidean geometry to fractal geometry, from Gaussian statistics to Paretian statistics, and - more importantly -…
Fractals are defined as geometric shapes that exhibit symmetry of scale. This simply implies that fractal is a shape that it would still look the same even if somebody could zoom in on one of its parts an infinite number of times. This…
