We discuss the definition and measurability questions of random fractals and find under certain conditions a formula for upper and lower Minkowski dimensions. For the case of a random self-similar set we obtain the packing dimension.
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…
We use a characterization of Minkowski measurability to study the asymptotics of best packing on cut-out subsets of the real line with Minkowski dimension $d\in(0,1)$. Our main result is a proof that Minkowski measurability is a sufficient…
Fractal Lipschitz-Killing curvature measures C^f_k(F,.), k = 0, ..., d, are determined for a large class of self-similar sets F in R^d. They arise as weak limits of the appropriately rescaled classical Lipschitz-Killing curvature measures…
We construct spectral triples and, in particular, Dirac operators, for the algebra of continuous functions on certain compact metric spaces. The triples are countable sums of triples where each summand is based on a curve in the space.…
We study the squared width and the profile of flux tubes in compact U(1) lattice gauge theory in three spacetime dimensions. The results obtained from numerical calculations in the dual formulation of this confining theory are compared with…
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…
In this work, we first recall the definition of the relative distance zeta function in [42, 43, 44, 46, 47] and slightly generalize this notion from sets to probability measures, and then move on to propose a novel definition a relative…
This paper gives a (polynomial time) algorithm to decide whether a given Discrete Self-Similar Fractal Shape can be assembled in the aTAM model.In the positive case, the construction relies on a Self-Assembling System in the aTAM which…
We consider a class of random self-similar fractals based on code trees which includes random recursive, homogeneous and V-variable fractals and many more. For such random fractals we consider mean values of the Lipschitz-Killing curvatures…
In 2009, the first author introduced a new class of zeta functions, called `distance zeta functions', associated with arbitrary compact fractal subsets of Euclidean spaces of arbitrary dimension. It represents a natural, but nontrivial…
Following \cite{Visintin}, we exploit the fractional perimeter of a set to give a definition of fractal dimension for its measure theoretic boundary. We calculate the fractal dimension of sets which can be defined in a recursive way and we…
If our aesthetic preferences are affected by fractal geometry of nature, scaling regularities would be expected to appear in all art forms, including music. While a variety of statistical tools have been proposed to analyze time series in…
We propose a novel method to measure the fractal dimension of a submonolayer metal adatom system grown under conditions of limited diffusivity on a surface. The method is based on measuring the specular peak attenuation of He atoms…
We consider a conformal system of a string and a particle defined in D=10+2 space-time dimensions. The extra time-like dimension is a gauge artifact and can be eliminated by choosing a gauge in which the SO(10,1) Lorentz symmetry is…
For $2\leq p<\infty$, $\alpha'>2/p$, and $\delta>0$, we construct Cantor-type measures on $\mathbb{R}$ supported on sets of Hausdorff dimension $\alpha<\alpha'$ for which the associated maximal operator is bounded from $L^p_\delta…
We study derivations and Fredholm modules on metric spaces with a local regular conservative Dirichlet form. In particular, on finitely ramified fractals, we show that there is a non-trivial Fredholm module if and only if the fractal is not…
This paper considers a class C(Z_p) of closed sets of the p-adic integers obtained by graph-directed constructions analogous to those of Mauldin and Williams over the real numbers. These sets are characterized as collections of those p-adic…
In this paper, we study the effective dimension of points in infinite fractal trees generated recursively by a finite tree over some alphabet. Using unequal costs coding, we associate a length function with each such fractal tree and show…
