The method of spectral decimation is applied to an infinite collection of self--similar fractals. The sets considered belong to the class of nested fractals, and are thus very symmetric. An explicit construction is given to obtain formulas…
In the following, we give an explicit construction of a Laplacian on the Minkowski curve, with energy forms that bear the geometric characteristic of the structure. The spectrum of the Laplacian is obtained by means of spectral decimation.
It has recently been realized that fractals may be characterized by complex dimensions, arising from complex poles of the corresponding zeta function, and we show here that these lead to oscillatory behavior in various physical quantities.…
We prove that every Peano continuum with uncountably many local cut points is a topological fractal. This extends some recent results and it partially answers a conjecture by Hata. We also discuss the number of mappings which are necessary…
We develop tools to study the topology and geometry of self-affine fractals in dimension three and higher. We use the self-affine structure and obtain rather detailed information about the connectedness of interior and boundary sets, and on…
We propose a novel mathematical framework to address the problem of automatically solving large jigsaw puzzles. This problem assumes a large image, which is cut into equal square pieces that are arbitrarily rotated and shuffled, and asks to…
Laplacian Eigenvectors of the graph constructed from a data set are used in many spectral manifold learning algorithms such as diffusion maps and spectral clustering. Given a graph constructed from a random sample of a $d$-dimensional…
We consider a random self-affine carpet $F$ based on an $n\times m$ subdivision of rectangles and a probability $0<p<1$. Starting by dividing $[0,1]^2$ into an $n\times m$ grid of rectangles and selecting these independently with…
In this manuscript we study single-line approximations and fractals based on the Apollonian gasket. The well-known Apollonian gasket is the limit case of configurations of kissing circles. Rather than plotting the circles as discs on a…
We introduce an alternative coordinate system based on derivative polar and spherical coordinate functions and construct a root-to-canopy analytic formulation for tree fractals. We develop smooth tree fractals and demonstrate the…
The nodal set of a Laplacian eigenfunction forms a partition of the underlying manifold or graph. Another natural partition is based on the gradient vector field of the eigenfunction (on a manifold) or on the extremal points of the…
We study the structure of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on quantum graphs, with a particular focus on Morse eigenfunctions via nodal and Neumann domains. Building on Courant-type arguments, we establish upper bounds for the number of…
We developed a procedure of reducing the number of vertices and edges of a given tree, which we call the "tree simplification procedure," without changing its topological information. Our motivation for developing this procedure was to…
Fractal geometry, defined by self-similar patterns across scales, is crucial for understanding natural structures. This work addresses the fractal inverse problem, which involves extracting fractal codes from images to explain these…
In the objective of studying concentration and oscillation properties of eigenfunctions of the discrete Laplacian on regular graphs, we construct a pseudo-differential calculus on homogeneous trees, their universal covers. We define symbol…
We propose a framework for the visualization of directed networks relying on the eigenfunctions of the magnetic Laplacian, called here Magnetic Eigenmaps. The magnetic Laplacian is a complex deformation of the well-known combinatorial…
We discuss Laplacians on graphs in a framework of regular Dirichlet forms. We focus on phenomena related to unboundedness of the Laplacians. This includes (failure of) essential selfadjointness, absence of essential spectrum and stochastic…
We address the problem of computing the graph $p$-Laplacian eigenpairs for $p\in (2,\infty)$. We propose a reformulation of the graph $p$-Laplacian eigenvalue problem in terms of a constrained weighted Laplacian eigenvalue problem and…
J. Kigami has laid the foundations of what is now known as analysis on fractals, by allowing the construction of an operator of the same nature of the Laplacian, defined locally, on graphs having a fractal character. The Sierpinski gasket…
Perfect fractals are mathematical objects that, because they are generated by recursive processes, have self-similarity and infinite complexity. In particular, they also have a fractional dimension. Although several proposals for the study…
