A method is proposed for generating compact fractal disordered media, by generalizing the random midpoint displacement algorithm. The obtained structures are invasive stochastic fractals, with the Hurst exponent varying as a continuous…
The self-similarity properties of fractals are studied in the framework of the theory of entire analytical functions and the $q$-deformed algebra of coherent states. Self-similar structures are related to dissipation and to noncommutative…
For the Laplacian $\Delta$ defined on a p.c.f. self-similar fractal, we give an explicit formula for the resolvent kernel of the Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary conditions, and also with Neumann boundary conditions. That is, we construct…
We obtain a cohesive fracture model as a $\Gamma$-limit of scalar damage models in which the elastic coefficient is computed from the damage variable $v$ through a function $f_k$ of the form $f_k(v)=min\{1,\varepsilon_k^{1/2} f(v)\}$, with…
Fractal geometry is the study of sets which exhibit the same pattern at multiple scales. Developing tools to study these sets is of great interest. One step towards developing some of these tools is recognizing the duality between…
The classical approaches to numerically integrating a function $f$ are Monte Carlo (MC) and quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods. MC methods use random samples to evaluate $f$ and have error $O(\sigma(f)/\sqrt{n})$, where $\sigma(f)$ is the…

We revisit the problem of characterizing the eigenvalue distribution of the Dirichlet-Laplacian on bounded open sets $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}$ with fractal boundaries. It is well-known from the results of Lapidus and Pomerance \cite{LapPo1}…
We survey a QMC approach to integral equations and develop some new applications to risk modeling. In particular, a rigorous error bound derived from Koksma-Hlawka type inequalities is achieved for certain expectations related to the…
Intermittency phenomena are known to be among the main reasons why Kolmogorov's theory of fully developed Turbulence is not in accordance with several experimental results. This is why some \emph{fractal} statistical models have been…
Fractal geometry of critical curves appearing in 2D critical systems is characterized by their harmonic measure. For systems described by conformal field theories with central charge $c\leqslant 1$, scaling exponents of harmonic measure…
This work proposes a novel technique for the numerical calculus of the fractal dimension of fractal objects which can be represented as a closed contour. The proposed method maps the fractal contour onto a complex signal and calculates its…
To any spectral triple (A,D,H) a dimension d is associated, in analogy with the Hausdorff dimension for metric spaces. Indeed d is the unique number, if any, such that |D|^-d has non trivial logarithmic Dixmier trace. Moreover, when d is…
This paper investigates the estimation of the self-similarity parameter in fractional processes. We re-examine the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test as a distribution-based method for assessing self-similarity, emphasizing its robustness and…
This work examines a relativistic model for the observed inhomogeneities of the large scale structure where the hypothesis that this structure can be described as being a self-similar fractal system is advanced. The concept of hierarchical…
This paper studies the growth of local extrema of Laplacian eigenfunctions on post-critically finite (p.c.f.) fractals. We establish the sharp two-sided estimate $\#\mathrm{Extr}(u_\lambda)\asymp\lambda^{d_S/2}$ for the Sierpinski gasket,…
In this article, we develop a framework to study the large deviation principle for matrix models and their quantized versions, by tilting the measures using the limits of spherical integrals obtained in [46,47]. As examples, we obtain 1. a…
We study fractal measures on Euclidean space through the dynamics of "zooming in" on typical points. The resulting family of measures (the "scenery"), can be interpreted as an orbit in an appropriate dynamical system which often…
We use fractional integrals to generalize the description of hydrodynamic accretion in fractal media. The fractional continuous medium model allows the generalization of the equations of balance of mass density and momentum density. These…
