Fractal sets, by definition, are non-differentiable, however their dimension can be continuous, differentiable, and arithmetically manipulable as function of their construction parameters. A new arithmetic for fractal dimension of polyadic…
We consider several different models for generating random fractals including random self-similar sets, random self-affine carpets, and fractal percolation. In each setting we compute either the \emph{almost sure} or the \emph{Baire…
A stochastic model relating the parameters of astrophysical structures to the parameters of their granular components is applied to the formation of hierarchical, large-scale structures from galaxies assumed as point-like objects. If the…
There are three important types of structural properties that remain unchanged under the structural transformation of condensed matter physics and chemistry. They are the properties that remain unchanged under the structural periodic…

Our main goal in this long survey article is to provide an overview of the theory of complex fractal dimensions and of the associated geometric or fractal zeta functions, first in the case of fractal strings (one-dimensional drums with…
The fractal structure of directed percolation clusters, grown at the percolation threshold inside parabolic-like systems, is studied in two dimensions via Monte Carlo simulations. With a free surface at y=\pm Cx^k and a dynamical exponent…
Given an integer $n\geq 2$ and a digit set ${\mathcal D}\subsetneq {0,1,...,n-1}^2$, there is a self-similar set $F \subset {\Bbb R}^2$ satisfying the set equation: $F=(F+{\mathcal D})/n$. We call such $F$ a fractal square. By studying a…
Homogeneity and isotropy of the universe at sufficiently large scales is a fundamental premise on which modern cosmology is based. Fractal dimensions of matter distribution is a parameter that can be used to test the hypothesis of…
Fractal dimensions can be used to characterize the clustering and lacunarities in density distributions. We use generalized fractal dimensions to study the neutral hydrogen distribution (HI) during the epoch of reionization. Using a…
We calculate the almost sure Hausdorff dimension for a general class of random affine planar code tree fractals. The set of probability measures describing the randomness includes natural measures in random $V$-variable and homogeneous…
We establish properties of a new type of fractal which has partial self similarity at all scales. For any collection of iterated functions systems with an associated probability distribution and any positive integer V there is a…
An alternate definition of the box-counting dimension is proposed, to provide a better approximation for fractals involving rotation such as the 'Bradley Spiral' structure. A curve fitting comparison of this definition with the box-counting…
We determine the Hausdorff, packing and box-counting dimension of a family of self-affine sets generalizing Bara\'nski carpets. More specifically, we fix a Bara\'nski system and allow both vertical and horizontal random translations, while…
In this paper we present a method for constructing the continuous best fractal approximation in the space of bounded functions. We construct the finite-dimensional subspace of the space of bounded functions whose base consists of the…
We study a variant of the Falconer distance problem for dot products. In particular, for fractal subsets $A\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and $a,x\in \mathbb{R}^n$, we study sets of the form \[ \Pi_x^a(A) := \{\alpha \in \mathbb{R} : (a-x)\cdot y=…
Hausdorff and box dimension are two familiar notions of fractal dimension. Box dimension can be larger than Hausdorff dimension, because in the definition of box dimension, all sets in the cover have the same diameter, but for Hausdorff…
We establish pointwise and distributional fractal tube formulas for a large class of compact subsets of Euclidean spaces of arbitrary dimensions. These formulas are expressed as sums of residues of suitable meromorphic functions over the…
We study several fractal properties of the Weierstrass-type function \[ W(x)=\sum_{n=0} ^\infty \lambda (x) \lambda(\tau x) \cdots \lambda (\tau ^{n-1}x)\, g(\tau ^n x), \] where $\tau :[0,1)\to[0,1)$ is a cookie cutter map with possibly…
By considering a Moran-type construction of fractals on $[0,1]$, we show that for any $0\le s\le 1$, there exists some Moran fractal set, which is perfect, with Hausdorff dimension $s$ whose Fourier dimension is zero and it contains…
