We derive a homeomorphism invariant for those tiling spaces which are made by rather general substitution rules on polygonal tiles, including those tilings, like the pinwheel, which contain tiles in infinitely many orientations. The…
Fractals are self-repeating patterns which have dimensions given by fractions rather than integers. While the dimension of a system unambiguously defines its properties, a fractional dimensional system can exhibit interesting properties.…
A method to construct fractal surfaces by recurrent fractal curves is provided. First we construct fractal interpolation curves using a recurrent iterated functions system(RIFS) with function scaling factors and estimate their box-counting…
An iterated function system $\Phi$ consisting of contractive similarity mappings has a unique attractor $F \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ which is invariant under the action of the system, as was shown by Hutchinson [Hut]. This paper shows how the…
The improved city clustering algorithm can be used to identify urban boundaries on a digital map, and the results are a set of isolines. The relationships between the urban measurements within the variable boundaries follow allometric…
In this paper, we consider the set of all domino tilings of a cubiculated region. The primary question we explore is: How can we move from one tiling to another? Tiling spaces can be viewed as spaces of subgraphs of a fixed graph with a…
A novel method for constructing a nonlinear fractal histopolation function associated with a given histogram is introduced in this paper. In contrast to classical fractal interpolation methods, which produce continuous and interpolatory…
A combinatorial tiling of the sphere is naturally given by an embedded graph. We study the case that each tile has exactly five edges, with the ultimate goal of classifying combinatorial tilings of the sphere by geometrically congruent…
Fractal geometry deals mainly with irregularity and captures the complexity of a structure or phenomenon. In this article, we focus on the approximation of set-valued functions using modern machinery on the subject of fractal geometry. We…
This paper provides a new model to compute the fractal dimension of a subset on a generalized-fractal space. Recall that fractal structures are a perfect place where a new definition of fractal dimension can be given, so we perform a…
The fast multipole method (FMM) performs fast approximate kernel summation to a specified tolerance $\epsilon$ by using a hierarchical division of the domain, which groups source and receiver points into regions that satisfy local…
In this paper, we present an effective method to characterize completely when a disconnected fractal square has only finitely many connected components. Our method is to establish some graph structures on fractal squares to reveal the…
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…
This paper is about the tiling dynamical systems approach to the study of aperiodic order. We compare and contrast four related types of systems: ordinary (one-dimensional) symbolic systems, one-dimensional tiling systems, multidimensional…
Fractal lattices, featuring the self-similarity symmetry, are often geometric descents of parent crystals, possessing all their discrete symmetries (such as rotations and reflections) except the translational ones. Here, we formulate three…
In this paper we use fractal geometry to investigate boundary aspects of the first homology group for finite coverings of the modular surface. We obtain a complete description of algebraically invisible parts of this homology group. More…
Finite automata were used to determine multiple addresses in number systems and to find topological properties of self-affine tiles and finite type fractals. We join these two lines of research by axiomatically defining automata which…
We develop an algorithm to construct new self-similar space-filling packings of spheres. Each topologically different configuration is characterized by its own fractal dimension. We also find the first bi-cromatic packing known up to now.
In this paper, we study the structure of the set of tilings produced by any given tile-set. For better understanding this structure, we address the set of finite patterns that each tiling contains. This set of patterns can be analyzed in…
The theory of substitution sequences and their higher-dimensional analogues is intimately connected with symbolic dynamics. By systematically studying the factors (in the sense of dynamical systems theory) of a substitution dynamical…
