Tube formulas (by which we mean an explicit formula for the volume of an $\epsilon$-neighbourhood of a subset of a suitable metric space) have been used in many situations to study properties of the subset. For smooth submanifolds of…
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…
Multifractals are inhomogeneous measures (or functions) which are typically described by a full spectrum of real dimensions, as opposed to a single real dimension. Results from the study of fractal strings in the analysis of their geometry,…
The multifractal structure underlying a self-similar measure stems directly from the weighted self-similar system (or weighted iterated function system) which is used to construct the measure. This follows much in the way that the dimension…
Multifractal analysis refers to the study of the local properties of measures and functions, and consists of two parts: the fine multifractal theory and the coarse multifractal theory. The fine and the coarse theory are linked by a web of…
We establish pointwise and distributional fractal tube formulas for a large class of relative fractal drums in Euclidean spaces of arbitrary dimensions. A relative fractal drum (or RFD, in short) is an ordered pair $(A,\Omega)$ of subsets…
In a previous paper by the first two authors, a tube formula for fractal sprays was obtained which also applies to a certain class of self-similar fractals. The proof of this formula uses distributional techniques and requires fairly strong…
Various methods have been developed independently to study the multifractality of measures in many different contexts. Although they all convey the same intuitive idea of giving a "dimension" to sets where a quantity scales similarly within…
We use the self-similar tilings constructed by the second author in "Canonical self-affine tilings by iterated function systems" to define a generating function for the geometry of a self-similar set in Euclidean space. This tubular zeta…
In 2009, the first author introduced a class of zeta functions, called `distance zeta functions', which has enabled us to extend the existing theory of zeta functions of fractal strings and sprays (initiated by the first author and his…
We study regularity properties of frequency measures arising from random substitutions, which are a generalisation of (deterministic) substitutions where the substituted image of each letter is chosen independently from a fixed finite set.…
We study self-similar measures in $\mathbb{R}$ satisfying the weak separation condition along with weak technical assumptions which are satisfied in all known examples. For such a measure $\mu$, we show that there is a finite set of concave…
For a Borel measure on the unit interval and a sequence of scales that tend to zero, we define a one-parameter family of zeta functions called multifractal zeta functions. These functions are a first attempt to associate a zeta function to…
The multifractal spectrum of a Borel measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is defined as \[ f_\mu(\alpha) = \dim_H {x:\lim_{r\to 0} \frac{\log \mu(B(x,r))}{\log r}=\alpha}. \] For self-similar measures under the open set condition the behavior of…
In this work, we provide a treatment of scaling functional equations in a general setting involving fractals arising from sufficiently nice self-similar systems in order to analyze the tube functions, tube zeta functions, and complex…
The creativity and emergence of biological and psychological behavior are nonlinear. However, that does not necessarily mean only that the measurements of the behaviors are curvilinear. Furthermore, the linear model might fail to reduce…
The volume-of-tube formula was first introduced by Hotelling (1939), to solve significance of terms in nonlinear regression models. Since this pioneering paper, there has been significant work on extending the tube formula to more general…
For a Borel measure and a sequence of partitions on the unit interval, we define a multifractal spectrum based on coarse Holder regularity. Specifically, the coarse Holder regularity values attained by a given measure and with respect to a…
The multifractal formalism for measures in its original formulation is checked for special classes of measures such as doubling, self-similar, and Gibbs-like ones. Out of these classes, suitable conditions should be taken into account to…
The theory of 'zeta functions of fractal strings' has been initiated by the first author in the early 1990s, and developed jointly with his collaborators during almost two decades of intensive research in numerous articles and several…
